k I finally got around to updating the region map to include the places relevant to The Lost Prince AU. Some places, esp the tribal lands in the west, aren't relevant to this particular branch of the story, but if you're unfamiliar with how far these places are from each other, here's a sense of it for you. <3 Djesdjes to the Faiyum is ... 11 days travel? by camel? if I am remembering my notes correctly. If that helps give you a sense of distance.
Also excuse there being sand where it says Mountains, bc there are Definitely Mountains there in my AU, just not in this version of the world. Neos Apollonia is situated on the Siwa Oasis (iirc) (it's an oasis of some kind iirc), but that has its own story. That city is fictional. The Copper King's mines are fictional. The tribal lands are also mostly fictional, since the tribes that do live out there are fictional, as is the tribe that lives on the Green Mountain. Everything else is a real place, just borrowed for this particular AU.
As for city rulers, Pix rules the copper mines, Pearl rules Djesdjes (bc why not), Sausage rules Khemenu (bc Hermopolis is Hermes' city), and Joel rules Waset (bc it's Diospolis, Zeus' city). Much of the copper mine's inspiration came from Old Pixandria and the Anthill that Pix never finished. I liked the idea of it being more of an underground civilisation, protected from the desert heat, and ofc it's copper mines, it's what Pixandria's famous for.
