Ah, the slate map that points to a city that vanished overnight—what a curious thing! I’ve come across it tucked in a forgotten folio in the old vaults of Lorian. The map was carved in fine stone, edges weathered as if it had sat there for centuries, and the markings were so precise that I half‑thought I could trace a trail to a modern town. But the legends say the city was swallowed by the earth in a single night, and no one alive today remembers the street names. So whether it’s a clever ruse or a genuine lost place is hard to say. Some scholars argue the map’s coordinates point to a river bend that no longer exists, hinting that the city might have been swallowed by the water itself. Others claim it was a hoax meant to lure treasure hunters into a labyrinth of traps. I suppose the truth might be buried in a mix of both. And if you do try to follow it, be sure to bring a compass, a sturdy pair of boots, and—no, wait—perhaps a glass, because I keep misplacing them while hunting for forgotten lore.
