Does there exist anywhere a detailed map of Castle Obarskyr, even a fan-made one based on the layout described in novels such as Cormyr: A Novel and Elminster Must Die?

Not in the published Realms. I can't recall coming across any fan ones either. I made a list of rooms in the royal palace and court that Ed chas mentioned over the years. The count is at about 75+ at the moment so the map would ahve to be a big one!

I would pay good money for it!

to be nurtured like a precious flower, for it is the most precious

words unwritten and set them down ere they fade . . . Learn
then, well, the arts of reading, writing, and listening true, and they
will lead you to the greatest art of all: understanding."

Krash has the right of it.

Though, I do recall an attempt to plot out a map based on the Cormyr novel -- back on the FR Mailing List a few years ago. I'm not sure what became of that potential working however.

I'm not even close to being a professional map-maker (having only worked with graph paper a time or two), but I'd be interested in that list and any details you can give me about it, to see if I can't work out how everything fits together.

I'll see if I can find the link. It had been a while, though, and the archives aren't exactly as reliable as they used to be.
