This may have been covered before in the Age of Worms discussions and if it has I'm sorry for the repeat, but what Greyhawk-specific locations are we going to see before the Age of Worms in finished?
The Cairn Hills, the "Free City", the Mistmarsh, and the Wormcrawl Fissure have been mentioned so far. Will the AoW take the PCs over the Nyr Dyv, into the Shield Lands, and through the lands of Iuz? The sidetrek from the Whispering Cairn to retrieve the Land family's remains proved that the AoW may send the PCs off the beaten path. As DM, I just want to be prepared.
Clue-gathering summary:
* two adventures in the Free City (Greyhawk), one of which takes place below the Free City Arena (in the Clerkburg district).
* two adventures in the rowdy port town of Alhaster along Nyr Dyv lake (be sure to beg Erik for poster map)
* an adventure on an island in the Nyr Dyv (near Alhaster)
* a faraway adventure in "The Spire of Long Shadows" (located near Cauldron, in the Amedio Jungle?, accessed via Wind Duke transporter?)
* adventure in the Wormcrawl Fissure
Other locations I've seen hinted: Magepoint, a coastal village on the south shore of the Nyr Dyv (home to the famous tower-fortress of the wizard Tenser!)
Not included: Between Alhaster and the Wormcrawl fissure lies the famous "White Plume Mountain", so if the Paizonis don't include a "return to" style adventure for that, I plan to run my group through a side-trek adventure there anyway! I love that place.

Please consider Eric begged.

I love that place myself, so if some further begging would help in getting a "return to" adventure, then I'm still grovelling at the feet of those who can make it so.
