First draft of Narnia map

[gmtaslash]

And so Trojie didst upload her first version of the map, and beg everyone's indulgence for the fact that a) Lantern Waste is off the page to the west, and that b) she has NO justification for why the Shribble is there except. well, how far can a giant owl with a child on its back fly, anyway? And for the fact that the Glasswater is so huge; it has to be, trust me, because it has to pass within fifteen miles of Aslan's How. Oh, and the scale at the bottom reads 0, 5, 10, 15, 20 miles.  I'm sorry it's so small.

The Glasswater does parallel the course of the Great River, true, but that's because I had to pass it between two specific points (the measured distance between the mouths of the two and the measured distance between the How and the Glasswater to the west) and yet the Glasswater does not (at least is not mentioned as) being a branch or tributary of the Great River.
The topography suggested in the books puts high ground to the north and to the southwest of the Great RIver, meaning that both the Glasswater and the GR are lying in the lowest part of what is, I am increasingly starting to think, a glacial valley, or possibly even a fiord with more recent volcanics .. OH MY GOD THAT'S IT

*realises she hasn't finished, and rushes back*

I actually suspect that the the Rush and the Glasswater have a common source in the Archenland mountains....

*is happy for Trojie's epiphany, though she's not entirely sure what just happened*

I think I get it. I suppose it'll be easier for us not-inside-your-head people to understand once you've got more topography in there; land heights and all that.

I'm working on topography, promise!

*goes off to ponder Epiphany some more*
