I found this:

Conan - Robert Howard - Cormac mac Art - Finn mac Cumhaill - Ossian - Napoleon - Corsica

The feedback system works, and in the article about Howard, Cormac mac Art is described as a seasoned sailor.

I dug up a book by Howard describing some of Conan's adventures. There's a map on the flyleaf. And on it, some formations are marked, roughly corresponding to Corsica and Malta(!).

The question is, did our hero visit them.

Interesting thought. However, since two quents fit the description, the uniqueness is lost. I'll need to look into it tomorrow.

For now, my list of possible worlds: Sesame, Ment, Dagr, Gur, Fragment, Uranium (possibly recruited, reduced activity after the second night), Drakkosha, maybe Yashchur

Negatives: Gekasan, WishmasteR

The rest - I don't know.

I should note that activity doesn't always equal peacefulness, just as passivity doesn't always mean a negative role. For example, you get stuck with someone like Alex Crow, and you don't like to guess at their psychology or practice doing so. So, you stay silent for half the topic. And then they flood the thread with nonsense, it's just awful, and so on.

Ment
I was also thinking about that (although I didn't quite understand why the real Cimmeria is in one place, and the author's version seems to be different), but the transition from Scandinavia to the Lofoten Islands is not clear enough; usually, clues are not presented in this way.
In the place of the real Cimmeria, Howard placed Zamora with its capital located on the site of one of the "pearls by the sea."

And Conan himself is not real, but rather a completely original character...

By the way, the map itself. Not sure why... But, just in case.

In Howard's work, Zamora, with its capital located on the site of one of the "pearls by the sea," is situated where the real Cimmeria was.
Oh, how complicated everything is.
It seems that everything is converging on the Corsican monster, which in this case is Alex...
But, since there are votes for Vish, let it be execute Vish).

Ugh, on the map, everything is completely mixed up. Amazon is where Congo should be. Britannia is where the Balkan-Slavic countries should be. Lemurian Sea is in the area of Japan (what a migration of lemurs). Funny.

Well, Howard's Britannia and real-life Britain are somewhat different concepts...

Yashur. But still, could you be a bit more constructive? Why am I Richie?
Who knows... Oology...

I even made a hint about myself, what a genius I am.
Well, you're used to playing when there are practically no facts. Who knows... Maybe you're doing it on purpose, hoping "They'll think something like that is impossible...":smile04:

Howard's Cimmeria, if I'm not mistaken, was located approximately where the Scandinavian Peninsula is drawn on the globe ==> Lofoten Islands ==> Yashur.
Excellent. It's a pity that I ate Bob's mushrooms and couldn't kill anyone...:D Bob, are you sure you fed me mushrooms and not Dag?

No, he wasn't in the newspaper for no reason. We just need to figure out what he was up to.
Maybe... was he trying to imitate Lyusya?:D

Here is another option:

Conan - Robert Howard - Cthulhu Mythos - Mu (Pacifica) - Easter Island - Nikolai Miklukho-Maklai - Johor Bahru - Johor - Singapore

Cthulhu is more related to Lovecraft.
