At this moment, everything on it—rivers, trees, the Highlanders' underground tunnels, settlements, underground water veins, and all underground mineral deposits—was marked with incomparable clarity. Judging by the ratio between this magical sand table and the land everyone had calculated, the area displayed by it was estimated to reach several hundred meters underground!
