Heres a theory for chapter 2 and a suggestion for chapter 3. Thought it would be cool if you could go back in chapter 2 or 3 to see the the destruction of orr, the unseen (so far) former part of the world. It would be the lead-in area to the real world, like pre-sear is in the original. Then, your charachter would miraculously escape and flee to cantha (or whatever the ch3 continent is). It would also leave room for seeing some untold stories, like how the liche came to be. I know including orr has been suggested before but this is just another way of incorporating it.
Thoughts?
Note: searched "Orr" in this forum and nothing similar came up.
Possible "Noob area" for ch2 or 3: Orr

With 8 chapters, I wouldn't doubt one will be a flashback (So to speak). And your hero will start in Orr and it'll go through its legacy.

The only thing I'm unsure of, would be that Orr is part of the Ascalonian continent. It seems odd for a new chapter to contain parts of the old chapters map.
