Screenshots follow the published location order

These shots sit in the same sequence as the Shell-location guide they were captured from. When several frames share one paragraph, we do not guess which one is the map.

Location

Early Shell after Tiel on most routes. After Balance Patch 1, revealing a Shell on the map costs Gloom, not Glimpses. Earlier Glimpse spend on Shell maps was refunded.
