According to Sandy, that map of Dorastor is hideously inaccurate. Fort Wrath is about as far from Arkat's Last Fort as it is from Old Wolf Fort. There is an enormous valley with a huge ridge of mountains between it and Ash Flat and Foulvale, full of werewolves and stuff. I don't know about the Arkat's Last Fort and Castle Kartolin area, but I'll bet that's not right either.
