It takes about 15 seconds to load all the effects. It's a beast and CC3 crashes all the time when I try to move around or zoom in. I wonder if someone else might have a suggestion that would speed up that process for you, or even automate it.The Sirilion map is larger than the Ziadon map. Gandwarf, I'm curious about what you were doing with the Sirilion map that was cleaning up the edges so well, but was so tedious that you gave up part way through. Ziadon is now ruled by the Alliance and the slaves that once had to work the mines and farms have been freed. Most were able to escape thanks to the sacrifice of the guard. The palace guard, dark skinned mercenaries from Padras, renowned for their loyalty and battle skill, died almost to the last man protecting the lesser wizards still remaining. Ziadon was already on the brink of revolt and the garrison was overwhelmed. It is carefully maintained.ĭuring the revolution the wizard that ruled Ziadon was eliminated by Alliance agents and a few weeks later the city was infiltrated through the catacombs by large numbers of Alliance troops. Timber has also been a problem in the past and the forest in the east is the largest planted forest in the world. It was so valuable to the rulers that large areas have even been walled off. Farmland is scarce and mainly concentrated near the river. Ziadon is very rich because of its silver deposits, but it has always lacked other natural resources. There's a lot of catacombs underneath the city, most created by extensive mining in the past, and those that are not flooded are used to house the remains of the dead. The lake itself drains into several tunnels to lower grounds. Construction was started during one of severals conflicts with the great city of Sirilion, that lies to the southwest.Ī river that springs from the mountains empties into a small lake. The last wall dates back only about twenty years. New walls were added over the years as the city grew. Mining operations moved farther and farther away from Ziadon, but the city prospered.

Immense wealth attracted the wizards and from the time they got involved in the city its growth exploded. The city once started humbly as a mining town, as there is a lot of silver to be found there in the ground and mountains. It is one of five great cities in The Valley, my fantasy world. So, this is Ziadon (see for its location on my world map). I cut and pasted the map together again, so there might be some small artefacts. See this thread for more cities and the WIP: Well, I struggled about 16 hours with this map and now declare it finished.
