First draft
The Cartographer of Broken Roads
In a kingdom where old roads can shift overnight and maps are treated as dangerous things, a reluctant mapmaker is hired to chart a pilgrimage route that no one has managed to finish in a generation. The work becomes less about drawing paths than surviving what the land has hidden from history, including the reason the roads keep changing at all.
