I found this map in one of the many boxes in Harold's Hock Shop. The silly fool doesn't know an expensive item when he sees it. He was going to sell it to me for only ten gold pieces. Anyway, I had the map in my grasp when that rotten scallywag Galifray took it right from under my nose. Somehow the scoundrel managed to trade it for a dragon bracelet.
