  Single sheet of paper, yes.

  But for small out of the way towns (population 2k-10k) you’d want one specific to the town otherwise you’d be looking at a tiny speck on a state sized map. And the big maps might not have all of the small city side streets or not be up to date.

  For reference, the town I did delivery in currently has a population of ~3,000 people and occupies 2.7 square miles out of the 268,596 square miles of the Texas map. Doesn’t make sense to use a map where you’re only looking at about 0.0001% of it.

  Even better, being a delivery driver trying to find McRando’s house without GPS, map quest, etc. Just a street address and a city street map from the municipal Chamber of Commerce.

  Especially fun when half of your deliveries were out of the city limits and you had to ask for/write down directions, and no cell phone to call if you took a wrong turn or they gave you bad directions.

  I don’t miss those days.

  The fae operate on a different set of rules. The Tooth Fairy can only take teeth that are freely offered. The dead cannot consent.

  And the “inscribe ancient runes” step takes up to 4 months.

  We did that in the 90s while they were still new. See: The Toxic Avengers.
