Hi Auntieruth, thanks for taking the time with this. I've tried to polish up on the prose somewhat (and included a map!), but a fresh pair of eyes might be better. If you want to suggest any particular problematic spots, or do a copyedit yourself, I'd be grateful. Thanks, Constantine ✍ 17:21, 4 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
