Blighted Willage that had its own Well, and was build just between two rivers?
Tollhouse that (unless i remember incorectly) also have its own Well and was build next to the very same river?
Or Waukeen's Rest, where i honestly dont remember if i had seen well, but cant help the feeling that there was even fountain in the garden ... and yes, just behind barns, there is a river?
Or Druid Grove, that litteraly reach to river, where a Bear is hunting for fishes?

You missed my point. My point was that there are clearly settlements within the area map, so it doesn't make sense to say "the fishing village is off the map, it's a little distance from the beach!".

Personaly i believe that world map simply dont show everything that is there, just important zones for us ... or at least not now ... after all, even Moonrise Towers isnt there.

The rough size doesn't change just because the landmarks aren't there. If we are getting a 100 mile area map, and there is no fishing village, then the fishing village is 100 miles away or more. That's not a reasonable distance to cover to get to the shore.

I never said how many miles ...
I simply stated that no sensible fisherman will go fishing right next to the village, you allways swim a little futher.

Offshore or away from the village by a few miles? Sure. Offshore by 100 miles or more? That's not plausible.
