Holographic Map Legend

The Holographic Map Legend first appears in Book 2 as a concealed, tree-like projection at dungeon intersections, offering critical navigation data such as kilometer distances to stairs, villages, and saferooms. Across the series, these projections evolve from static, hidden waypoints into dynamic, interactive cartographic tools that adapt to the crawlers’ progress and the dungeon’s shifting layout. Their presence becomes a strategic lifeline, guiding parties through increasingly complex floors while hinting at the AI’s growing sophistication in map generation and concealment.
