Brazenthrone - The Anvil Quarter- Second Level
🕑 Added 2019-10-23 00:18:57 +0000 UTC
With the second level done, the Anvil Quarter is now finished and Brazenthrone looks a lot less like The Dwarven City of 10,000 Desk Jobs. As I mentioned in the last post, the next Brazenthrone map is the Noble Quarter, which completes the core of the city (although there's still a lot more to do). After that, I'm going to do something I've been waiting to do for a while: I'm connecting all the chambers of Brazenthrone and putting everything into a single image. Of course, I'll have to shrink it way down to keep the file size from being absurdly huge, but I think it'll be cool to step back and get a look at the whole thing.
So, I went to Spain earlier this month. And I learned a few things:
1)"España" is not Spanish for "Hot France." I have it on very good authority.
2)Spain doesn't know anything about October. Seriously, it was like 35°C (95°F). I don't think October has even been invented there yet.
3)The Torre Del Oro is definitely going to be a map. Not soon, since there's plenty of Great Vote maps to take care of first, but one day.
4)The Alhambra is unbelievable. It's a giant castle with several palaces, a church, homes, workshops, gardens and about a billion fountains. These guys were really into fountains. Like, there are literally fountains surrounded by other, smaller fountains. Will this ever become a map? I don't know. This place is absolutely enormous and it would easily be the biggest thing I've ever done aside from Brazenthrone. For now, let's file it under "we'll talk."
5)Seville is kind of unreal. I've been to Spain before (I live in Ireland and Ryanair will fly you there for some loose change and a stale slice of leftover pizza). But before, I was in Barcelona. Barcelona is a great city with some impressive stuff, but... how do I put this? You can go to Barcelona and not realize that Spain was once the center of a massive empire that was swimming in gold. That is not the case with Seville. Seville slaps you in the face with that fact over and over again. In fact, I'm pretty sure the Plaza de España was built for that specific purpose.
Okay, here's the non-annotated version. And, of course, there's patron stuff for patrons. You know the drill.

Yeah, I'm looking forward to seeing it all put together myself. A while back, I decided to wait until it'd just be ludicrously huge before I did it. Once the Noble Quarter is finished, I feel like it'll finally be big enough.

Can't wait for the Brazenthrone overview map, that sounds amazing
