Alt-text: "He's getting somewhere, I promise!"
Like the thing with the calendar, I tried to not pinpoint exactly where the locations of the comic lie. There is a map of the world, actually, but it does not have Backstown, Khalia, Blackshire or Serpent's End on it ;) But thinking harder about it, had Katharina known she was supposed to go to Serpent's End, she probably wouldn't have taken a faster route, but rather a safer and more comfortable one ...
