Time: the timeline puts every entry into an epoch. Pick one and the worlds with something in that epoch light up; a dashed rim means: only roughly placed (the entry carries no date, the placement is an estimate).

Paths
Story path — the places of a story in the order its text names them
Sphere of action — the home world of a group and the worlds of its stories

A path is not a travel route: it shows which worlds occur together — in the order of the text or in the circle of a group. Pick one above under "Path" or in a world's panel.

A "×17" after a story means: the world is named 17 times in its text.

For printing: the map as a poster (PDF, A2). German · English

The map is schematic. A dot grows with its number of connections; a mention in the text of a story does not count towards it and colours nothing, it only appears in the panel. The Cicatrix Maledictum, Imperium Nihilus and Sanctus, the Eye of Terror, the Maelstrom and the Astronomican are decoration, not to scale.

Paths 42

Worlds that occur together: the places of a story in the order of its text, or the home world of a group and the worlds of its stories. Not travel routes.
