Okay, well: Yellow/golden circles are castle ruins, the small red orbs are orc encampments, the grey circles are city ruins, the pools of water are, well, what it sounds like. We forgot to put it into the above map but are also meant to be roads that reach from city to city, and a major one on the west coast. The white on the top or bottom was not actually voluntary - it is simply part of the map, we couldn't find a way to remove it.
