Sky High Tavern

That map already looks awesome. Can't wait to see the written content.

You're in luck, I just finished the first draft of the written content :)
Oh nice. I do see a few imbalances between headers and text, where I'd either expand or leave out a few brief sections. Hm... Can you put the menu in an aloud box, perhaps? That'd help with visually breaking up the article to make it a bit less a wall of text. Maybe add horizontal lines between different parts of the menu too. I really like all the info btw, so no need to remove it, just slightly tweak the display.

The layout is always my worst enemy. It is indeed on my list to change. I however already implemented some of the suggestions. Thanks!
