“We’ve been traveling in circles for hours now. Where are we?”
“Check the map.”
“We have a map?”

Cartography is used to create maps of your immediate surroundings, up to and including the entire world. It is an essential skill for those who wish to go treasure hunting. You require a Mapmaker's Pen in order to craft maps of your own.

You may only draw maps in the facets of Trammel and Felucca. NPC Mapmaker Vendors will sell you standard maps to draw on, but you can also overwrite the pre-drawn copies they sell.

Note that while Cartography is required to initially decode Treasure Maps (done by double clicking them, this removes the term "tattered" from their title), once this is done any character can read them.
