Note about Illustrator and Cartography information update: While digging through old archives for unrelated information, I came across the old official "Quest Elanthia" site, which in 1998 was a part of the broader official "gamemasters.net" website. Noted that the artist, Starr Mahoney, was mentioned by name, as well as early examples of the map created by GMs Banthis and Lyredaen. 1) the [https://web.archive.org/web/20000519194541im_/http://gamemasters.net/quest/elanithv1small.jpg original sketch], 2) The [https://web.archive.org/web/20000519190945im_/http://gamemasters.net/quest/elanithv2small.jpg watercolor comp] provided to the Illustrator.

The updated map with Reim has smaller dimensions for whatever reason than the last 2 versions of Elanthia; seeing about getting a copy with the same or larger dimensions as the original, but not sure if that'll happen! GS4-KAIKALA (talk) 07:48, 9 January 2017 (CST)
