“Since the end of the Dross Wars, a hundred cycles ago, the Marshals of Rhea have endured, defending their strongholds against the wastelands’ many dangers, from vicious waste-dwellers to monstrous, mechanical Scylla – not to mention their fellow Great Houses…”

The map below shows the Wastelands of Rhea, and the strongholds of the five remaining Great Houses: Omega (Ω), Chi (X), Theta (Θ), Sigma (Σ), and Lambda (Λ).

Every book set in some kind of alternative world benefits from a map IMO; not only does it indicate the scope of the story, and make the world feel more ‘lived in’, but also offers a practical reference guide for distances between locations, etc…
