Well, Bernardholt is the westernmost steadholt in the Calderon Valley.  He could have grown up in Kordholt or Garrison!

Twu :~). Cept, then he would have been viewed by the Garrison twups. And Isana was twying to keep him hidden. Avoid the possibility that he would have been wecognized. :~)

Very cool!  Much studying to follow!

Am I seeing correctly that even the borders represent the different fury types?

What is the bird-looking thing with the marat?

So which symbol is which do you think?

My guess(from the left) - fire, metal, earth, water, wood, air.

The Amaranth Vale's no patch of grass either. It's a lot bigger than I expected

Yep, a lot of differences. Always thought Alera was more vertically elongated. And most of the cities are costal.

Most cities of the appropriate Earth era are either coastal or on a major navigable river that has uninterrupted access to the sea.

First off, Awsom map Pris, However, I do have a question, I thought just from reading the book that the feaverthorn Jungle was nearer Caldron, like somewhere near Bernard holt. Or was that a different set of woods that only Bernard could travel through?  Also Isn't Appia where the first aleran were fighting in captians fury, or was that a different set of ruins?

Appia is where Magnus and Tavi were researching in Cursor's Fury.  The final fight in Captains Fury took place at ruins outside Mastings.

No, there was a local Calderonian forest only Bernard was familiar enough with to traverse safely and easily... of the valley holders that is.
