Good idea to include this map. I found myself already referencing it during chapter 1, so I'm sure it will come in handy as I progress. 👍

Just curious, why are all eight characters labeled as Thread One? I assumed octagon, 8 sides, 8 characters but with each their own thread. Are you planning on having more than 8 chapters? I mean I get it all 8 share a common thread, but why list out Thread One if there's not going to be a Thread Two?
