Can we have an approximate scale of the map so that we know how long it should take to travel from one place to another? How will time be kept track of and how fast will it pass, it was pretty slow in aeterna...

Skógur town added. I think I'm going to wait a little to add the minor places to the map.

I don't want to give a definite scale on the map. The map should give you an idea of where things are in he world, not how long distance there is between them.
Just like old maps this one is not completely correct, but gives you an idea of how he world looks.
I can say however that traveling from Mattur city to Hofn town on foot would take some time. Just don't race from one part of the world to another part in 5 minutes please. It will take at least a day. Ask me if you are not sure.
As for time, yes I do agree thet time was way to slow in Aeterna. Wandering around in the caves should have taken more than 5 minutes for example. I can't think of another way of doing it tough. I do however ask everyone to consider how much time the task they are doing will take.

I would post now, but I would rather wait either for Katrix's approval or opening post.
Either way, I'm putting Frank on a house near the lake, and he goes to the shady town for marketing, his job, gambling, the like. It seemed closest to the lake.

Even in the old days they had freezers, or at least things that passed as them. The freezer I was talking about was the old icebox freezers, the ones that used ice as the cooling system. I believe they used spices in the medieval period, but there's a reason Azeruk has a freezer. Azeruk's family is a group of tinkerers, hence why they can create all these "advanced" contraptions, and why Azeruk has a freezer in his basement. They do a lot of blacksmithing, but they take it a step further and make more advanced parts out of metal, wood, etc. They then take those parts and make things like compound bows, clocks, and rapid-fire crossbows.
As for the other bit, fixed. I copy/pasted the time and altered it, but forgot to change the AM to PM.
@Katrix
Just as a reference, here's the basic shape of the bow.

ok, I understand the freezer concept now, and a compound bow yay :) and you might want to account for the possibility of different arrowheads, e.g. barbed, armor piercing, they can have different ranges and capabilities
btw, do you take part in archery irl?

Nope. I try to do all my research as I RP.:p
It can get fairly stressful, but you actually learn a lot of stuff along the way.
I know about the other arrowheads, but I never actually took that into account. I'll be sure to try and work the arrows into the conversation when Azeruk tells Sidna about the various types.:)
