Hey can I use this as a backdrop on Stratics.com? We are a forum dedicated to Ultima Online. Thanks and awesome work!
Oh my goodness this brings back memories of what may possibly the greatest mmorpg to ever grace the computer screen. I've been playing since mid 2000 and to this day I have yet to quit though I have been recently playing on free shards. Speaking of which I'm working on a server of my own, complete with a custom map and everything from the equipment to monsters is being redone. Its basically what Age of Shadows should have been. No artifacts, no abusing magic items, gold will be more limited than before, no legendary skills, guards that can actually be killed, plus many more. I've been working for around 2 years now and I still have a lot to work on. Basically I just work on it on my spare time so things are rather slow for the time being.
Been a long time since you played UO?? Unsure about how to start playing again?? Don't worry, its easier then you may think. Go towww.zenvera.com/how-to and follow the simple instructions on downloading the UO client, Razor and/or UOSteam, then setting up your account(s) and making your characters on Zenvera!
If you run into any problems, or can't figure something out then go towebchat.freenode.net/?channels=%23zenvera&uio=d4 make a name, and come into the IRC channel to talk directly to players and staff that can assist you with it.
We hope to see you soon on Zenvera!

This is really quite something. I love that you've included these subtle touches to indicate it's ancient age. In particular the tones you've used to indicate a fading of the ink over time as well as the crosshatching from a woodcut or other printing method. It all ties together very nicely.
I recently got Ultima VII running on my mac using Exult so have been taking a serious trip down memory lane. I love your take on the map, nicely done 
The translations of the banners under the three small images of the cursor, the knight and the money are:
Wis Quas Lor: Knowledge of light
Sanct Ex Mani: Protector of freedom and life
Rel Sanct: Great wealth
And the translation of the big banner on top is:
Vas Uus Sanct: Creator of great protection
Wis Quas Lor: Knowledge of light
Sanct Ex Mani: Protector of freedom and life
Rel Sanct: Great wealth
And the translation of the big banner on top is:
Vas Uus Sanct: Creator of great protection
OMG I LOVE THIS GAME!! I used to play it WAY back in the day.
That's a real loaded question, man. There's a long amount of back story pertaining to the main Ultima series (1-7), but the generalized answer is because the ruler is named Lord British and it's named after him/.
