Questions about this map
Is Roshar the map for The Stormlight Archive?

How do I open the Shattered Plains map?

Is the Roshar map spoiler-free?
Not completely. Major later-book places start hidden and require a choice to reveal them. Some geography from later maps is already visible and noted on its location card. Place names can still be spoilers, so read the spoiler notes before opening the atlas.
Geography and artistic interpretation
Published Roshar and Shattered Plains maps by Isaac Stewart inform geographic relationships. Warcamp positions and the major plateau composition follow those references, while small fractures, building counts, shelter layouts and character staging are interpreted. Some geographic positions come from later-book maps and are noted in location cards.
Read this map’s source and interpretation notes. The research notes may discuss later-book geography.
Before you explore: spoilers
The default view hides major later-book places until you choose to reveal them. A separate later-book scene is available through the map’s reveal dialog. Some minor later-map geography is already visible and labelled in its location card. This is not a promise that every name or geographic feature is spoiler-free.
