I've come across a rather interesting conflict in information, and it's got me wondering where in the nation of Andoran is the city of Oregent truly located.
Both the Campaign Setting and Andoran, Spirit of Liberty describe the Candlestone Caverns as being located east of Oregent. Spirit of Liberty goes so far to say the caves lie "just to the east" of the settlement. This would place the city in the Aspodell Mountains, which is supported by the community's described proximity to a silver mine.
However, when looking at the maps of Andoran provided in both sources, not only do the Candlestone Caverns not appear to the east of Oregent, but they are over 330 miles to the northwest. The maps show the city in the relative center of the Andoran, south of Olfden. A search on the boards show that this was brought up at least once before, but somewhere along the way the posts were lost.
IIRC, it's in the Darkmoon Vale area. If you can find Falcon's Hollow, Droskar's Crag, or Almas on the map, it should be somewhere around there.
I'd point out exactly where, but I'm not with my books at the moment.
(unless I'm thinking of Olfden....damn)
That's the problem; maps show Oregent directly south of the region you describe, but the text descriptions place the city elsewhere. Which is correct, map or text?

I'm at home now, but I'm 98% certain we're going with the map as correct over the references to Oregent being elsewhere. I'll have to look on the giant, big ole map o' death hanging on the wall and see for sure, but unless it moved after my last involvement with it, that's where it is.
Maybe we should invoke Mr. Fishy...
