A map of the Ancient Basin, a land buried deep down at the bottom of the world.

A map of the City of Tears, capital of Hallownest. Does water really fall from above the city? It sounds beautiful...

A map of Crystal Peak, the huge shining mountain that looms behind Dirtmouth. My husband brought back some crystals from the mines along with the map of this area. What makes them shine so brightly?

A map of Deepnest, a dark and dangerous area at the bottom of the world.

When my husband came back with a map he'd barely filled out I was annoyed, but then I saw how frightened he was! Poor thing.

A map of Fog Canyon, which connects Greenpath to the Fungal Wastes. The air is thick there, so Cornifer found it difficult to find his way. Well, more difficult than he usually does.

A map of the Forgotten Crossroads, the area just below Dirtmouth. Cornifer dragged me down there once. It was an empty, lonely place but still quite impressive.

A map of Fungal Wastes, an area beneath the Forgotten Crossroads that is choked with fungus. My husband brought some mushrooms back from there and tried to cook them. The stench was hideous!

A map of Greenpath, a verdant area of Hallownest close to the surface. Apparently the water there is deadly to the touch!

A map of the Howling Cliffs, which look over Dirtmouth. Cornifer told me that the winds got so loud there he couldn't hear himself speak. Which begs the question...Why was he speaking to himself?

A map of Kingdom's Edge, all the way out at the end of the world. My husband...He travels to such distant places, while I stay here in town.

A map of the Resting Grounds, a sacred place not far from the Crossroads. Cornifer told me he found the area serene and calming, but it sounds a bit spooky to me. No Thanks.

A map of the Royal Waterways, the pipes and chambers below the City of Tears. It sounds like Cornifer really enjoyed exploring the area, though he was damp and shivering when he returned.

A map of the Queen's Gardens, a royal sanctuary close to Greenpath. Cornifer sometimes calls me his Queen...Usually only when I'm angry though.

Highly recommended! If you're having trouble finding your way in the maze of ruins below us, try this charm.

It will pinpoint your location on the map. Incredibly helpful for finding your bearings in unfamiliar locations!

You'll need this if you want to update your map with new areas as you explore.

It's essential for anyone serious about mapping!

Use these pins to mark shopkeepers or any other interesting bugs you find on your travels.

Every so often, you should pass by and see how they're doing. I'm sure they'd like that.

These pins will mark any Stagway Stations you've visited. They must have been very lively places when the stags still travelled through them.

These pins will mark benches and other rest spots on your map. Useful if you're exhausted and just need to find somewhere to sit!

Have you seen those beautiful blue cocoons? I made these pins so you can keep track of them. The cocoons are pretty, but very delicate. Please be careful around them!

I designed these pins to keep track of the kingdom's hot springs. I haven't visited any myself... I wonder if Cornifer might take me sometime? I'm sure you'd make better use of these pins 'til then.

Cornifer has been telling me about these strange whispering roots he's been seeing. I made him some pins so you can record their locations yourself.

Cornifer told me he's found some interesting looking graves and shrines in the depths.You can use these pins to mark down any interesting graves on your map. Go and pay your respects.

Those trams sound like awfully advanced machines. Those ancient bugs must've been a clever lot. These pins should be perfect for recording a tram stop's location.

This understated colour makes me think of hunting underground for treasure...

First encounter

Come to buy a map have you? Its really my husband you should be dealing with, but what a surprise! He's headed down below.

He'll pop back occasionally to deliver new maps for the store but I do wish he'd spend a little more time up here. I've not much interest in retail myself.

Now, let's see what's here for me to sell.

Talking

Of all the places to end up, we've picked this dreary town. I'd thought it a temporary stop, then my husband became obsessed with that old ruin.

Now he's spending all his time down there. He argues cartography is sound business, but other than you, who's buying?

Talking again

Are you enjoying yourself down in the ruins? At times my husband makes Hallownest sound a wonder, but sometimes it seems a ghastly, dangerous place.

Nothing to sell

After more supplies? You've already bought so much. Unfortunately for now, you've cleaned us out of anything worth selling.

Cornifer will no doubt be pleased, though I do wonder what he plans to spend all that Geo on.

After acquiring Dream Nail

My husband mentioned some strange roots that grow about the kingdom and suggested I make a pin to mark them.

Cornifer thinks my pin's depiction look grander than the sad limp thing he comes across, but I figure, that's not a bad thing. Who'd want to buy a pin of a limp root?

Corny was telling me of some distinctive graves and shrines about the kingdom. I've made a new pin to represent them.

This one was quite challenging to make, and I laboured over the details. It's a nice result so I think it's worth a little more.

After acquiring Tram Pass

Apparently Hallownest has giant metal carriages called trams? Sounds unnecessary to me, given those old stag lines that Corny always talks about.

Still, I've made a pin to represent a tram station. Might be useful if you're inclined to make your map more detailed.

It wasn't too hard to make, so I'm not charging a premium for it.

After buying all maps and Cornifer returning home

Cornifer's home at last, but look at him, he's exhausted. He always does this, furiously charts a place, then collapses once he's done.

He'll be sleeping for some time I imagine, so even with him home, I'm still lost for company.

Ahhh, but I do love the bug, even his faults. Seeing his passion for maps, it's something of an inspiration.

Corny keeps asking me to join him on his adventures and I've always declined. Maybe next time I should accept the offer?

Dream Nailed

I'm glad I put down my weapon, this quiet life with Corny makes me a lot happier. It would be nice to stretch my legs again though... sometime soon...

While the Grimm Troupe is in Dirtmouth

Have you seen them? The travellers who set up camp outside of town? I was interested at first, not a lot has been happening lately. But they have a... sinister feeling to them. You can feel it, right? I've told Cornifer he's not to speak to them. His heart and his mind are a little too open sometimes.

When Nymm is in Dirtmouth

A stylish fellow's made his way to town. Normally I'm wary of musicians, all pomp and ego.

This one seems okay... and he's not asked for any Geo just yet. Let's hope it stays that way.
