Explore Ansalon

Several years have passed since the War of the Lance ended, but Ansalon remains a continent shaped by conflict. The scars of the Cataclysm still define its geography, with shattered coastlines, lost kingdoms, and the ruins of Istar resting beneath the Blood Sea. Now, the devastation left by the Dragonarmies has added new wounds to a land already struggling to recover.

With the defeat of Takhisis's Dragonarmies, the peoples of Ansalon have begun rebuilding their homes, restoring trade routes, and reclaiming territories lost during the war. Yet peace remains fragile. The Knights of Solamnia seek to restore their strength and reputation, the elven nations grapple with old divisions and uncertain futures, and the dwarven realms face challenges both within and beyond their mountain strongholds. Scattered remnants of the Dragonarmies, wandering draconians, ambitious warlords, and ancient rivalries continue to threaten the uneasy peace.

The return of the true gods, the rediscovery of dragonlances, and the legendary deeds of the Heroes of the Lance have forever changed Ansalon. Their victories have brought renewed hope, but the continent's future remains unwritten. Beyond the great cities and familiar roads, forgotten ruins, unexplored wilderness, and emerging threats offer opportunities for a new generation of adventurers to shape the world.

This atlas presents Ansalon in the years following the War of the Lance, providing a geographical and historical guide to a continent caught between recovery and renewed uncertainty. Its markers show approximate regional positions rather than in-game routes or travel distances.
