Rummaging through some old MM8 stuff, I ran across all my old hand-drawn maps. The first page shows Ravenshore, showing all shops, all instructors, and all guilds. There is also a list of caravans, such as "Arena--Su., Alvar--Mo., Sa.etc. Quests are also listed, with who requests each one. Ship schedules are also given.
There are similar maps for just about every area. For Dagger Wound Island, I've got a message not to go to a certain area in turn-based mode, because it can cause a major crash.
Balthasar's Lair is one of the few indoor maps. I'm surprised that I don't seem to have a map of Ithilgore's area--since he was my favorite add-on character. Footnote: when we went to China (back when it was safe and they were actually courting foreign tourists) we visited a "jade" souvenir factory. In Chinese reckoning, jade can be made of quite a few different stones. We bought a jasper dragon ("brown jade") which I immediately named Ithilgore.
If you're stuck in an area, I'll be glad to point you into the right direction, if I can. Running off color prints of all 10 maps and mailing them might be more expensive than my old-age pension would allow!
N. B.: I haven't played the game for at least 15 years, so I can't vouch for all the hints and tips included in them.
P. S. Since I was at the time a professional map draftsman, north is always up. I omitted map arrows to save space. The maps are NOT to scale.
