My question is, why must Castle World have any set map? If I want to have a
lake, a mountain, and a forest in my realm, am I going to be prevented from
doing so because my particular grid squares don't contain those environments?
It seems to me that having a set map does nothing but limit creativity. If
Joe and Sue want to say their realms border, and then two years later, Joe
decides he wants to have his realm border Sam's realm in a different story,
why not let that be so?
