Still, not the easiest thing to visualize the world's edge. Easily said, but not so easily visualized, so cut yourself some slack.
I'm reminded of what the writer Neil Gaiman said on set of the movie adaption of his novel 'Stardust' (Not an exct quote mind you):
"When I wrote the novel 10 years ago I needed a way to get my main characters down from the cloud they were stranded on. The solution was easy. A flying ship. A few lines do descripe it and problem solved. And now these poor people have to build the entire ship. I want to go around and apologize to every one of them."

I am beginning to wonder if perhaps the world could be fixed and become whole again. If so, I am guessing it'd take someone who could access ALL of sources directly (except the white, of course.) Just to be able to recreate the landmasses, oceans and life in such a grand scale. Otherwise, who knows how long the world can keep lasting if there's a chance the white energy continues to fight through the years.
This is beautiful. I like the way the light was rendered and the mountains are pretty while being badass. Okay, now I'm imagining Bob Ross saying, "Paint those happy badass mountains."
The rough texture at the edge of the grassy hills really works. The only part that has me confused is the fact that the moment I saw the house in the circle of wall in the center, I imagined it was going to blast off into space. This may be me on too little sleep. XD

An island on a chain?
Is this what Alfred meant when he said he was tired when he left that message for Fenfen in Lars. Is the world falling apart or are Alfred and the dragons still putting it back together after another spat with his planet eater Ex?
I mean, it makes for cool scenery, but probably makes for a pain to get around to places that aren't really connected with the rest of the world they live on. Just getting that bridge must have been a chore with how gravity works at the edge.

Landscapes are indeed hard to make look good with a generally cell shaded style. I'm struggling myself every single time I have to make one.
It's trying to find a balance between having enough detail in there to not look like flat, bland colours while at the same time not so detailed that it looks like a mess of lines or textures everywhere...
