Seekers Map

Every volume of the Seekers series (excluding the mangas) contains a version of the Seekers map. There is one from the bears' point of view and one from the flat-faces'. It shows the path the bears take throughout the series. In each book, the map is updated to show the bears' progress.

Trivia[]

The Original (unreleased) Original Series map[]

In this map, Kallik takes the Claw Path and get captured. The difference is that when the metal bird crashed, Kallik goes in a different direction instead of following Silaluk. This causes her to go straight to Great Bear Lake, but never meet Lusa or Toklo. Instead, Kallik leaves and goes to the Place of Endless Ice. She meets Lusa, Ujurak, and Toklo on the ice, meaning Toklo, Lusa, and Ujurak would have found someone to help them. Strangely, on the map when Kallik's line meets Lusa and Toklo's, it disappears. This may mean, originally, Toklo was going to kill her, she would die somehow, or it was a mistake. The map shows the bears ending at Walrus Rock.

The Original Series map[]

Unlike above, Kallik meets Lusa and Toklo and joins them on their journey. The map follows the same path as the book until they reach the Endless Ice. The map shows them travel right through The Place of Fishing Flat-Faces. Oddly, this place wasn't mentioned in the book series. At the end, the path ends at Walrus Rock, instead of Star Island.

Island of Shadows map[]

Correctly, this map starts at Star Island and travels the same path as the book. The Claw Path appears to have disappeared on this map, but since Kallik's path was deleted, there are just the words. The BlackPath and SilverPath disappear on this map. The Island of Shadows is not named on the map.

The Melting Sea map[]

The end of this path goes to where they enter the Melting Sea. This map does not show the path the bears took on the Melting Sea.

River of Lost Bears map[]

This path comes right from the Melting Sea, cuts through the Place of Metal Birds, a few rivers, and goes right up to Bear Snout Mountain and the Three Lakes.

Forest of Wolves map[]

A short route, curves to Toklo's BirthDen.

The Burning Horizon map[]

The route goes north from Toklo's BirthDen and stops a short distance from Great Bear Lake. Though Lusa is separated from the group, there is no sign of the path she took or the caribou trail where they were reunited.
