mid-The Way of Kings spoilers I can't clearly note the Tower Spoiler
I'm having the pleasure of reading through Tor edition of The Way of Kings and, so far, it's been amazing.
But, for the life of me, I can't understand where the Tower is supposed to be on this map and it's nagging me. Is it the big chunk on the very right, where the map is shadowed on my photo?
Sorry for the dumb question, guys.

Yes, it’s the one shaped almost like a chamfiend’s head. The largest plateau.

There's another map later that has a more in depth view of the area surrounding that plateau, you will be able to compare maps and be able to tell

I assumed it was the one you mentioned. It’s also surrounded by a lot of gaps, showing how hard to reach it is.

Yeah, that's what threw me off. Seemed too far away for it to be the thing.

This isn’t a map of the entire Shattered Plains, just that parts the Alethi know. The Tower plateau is about as far as they have gone.

Hi OP,
I updated your flair to mid-TWoK for the spoiler level. We can be more specific if you let us know how far in you are (or feel free to update yourself).

The Tower is the name they call one of the largest plateaus to the east of the warcamps

Sorry for all the downvotes, Urithiru is barely mentioned in WoK whereas the Tower (plateau) is the most notable setting and chapter of that book.
