We're going on a trip to a kingdom-turned-to-crypt! Deep underground, Hallownest-bound!
In this video, we're going to discuss the massive Hallownest mapping project created by @TheEmbracedOne AKA Nook! She made an entire map of Hallownest by compiling thousands of in game screenshots together in one big image! And this new view of Hallownest gives us many things to discuss.
Check out Nook's map here:

Nook is also a game developer, working on the game Where Birds Go to Sleep! Check out her game here:
