Is there a map of kelesis? Tighnari is making one (he has experience in this from using and making jungle maps) to use for hell pit research, but a head start would be good.

He will attempt to verify the map information before using it since he heard about weirdness accessing kelesis.
Properly mapping Kelesis may prove to be a challenging feat, as while the general structure of the city remains the same (especially the center of it and the waterfront, which is where the shops are, and where the Kelesians direct everyone to go), the rest of the city is... oddly unstable.

There are streets, neighborhoods, districts. And to fly over it, it would seem 'normal', with the distant borders of Kelesis reachable. To walk through it, it would also appear 'normal', though it would take longer than it should to reach the edges of the city this way.

What is less normal is that the streets themselves aren't always in the same place. The differences are mild- such as an alley occurring a block later on one day, and a block sooner on the next. The sides of the street may be switched. There might be one more rowhouse in a strip of them. Just... maddening little differences, inconsistencies. Things that would make properly mapping it out... challenging.

The Kelesians notice none of this, and seem to have no problems navigating to and from their homes. If they're asked about this phenomena, they'll have no idea what the character is talking about, and will suggest that their streets are a bit confusing to a newcomer! One more reason to stay in the center of the city, where all the entertainment is....
