Overview

Location Details is the working page for one story place. It shows the location's description, parent or child locations, relationships to other places, and where it is used by scenes, characters and assets.

When Should I Use This?

Use it when spatial continuity matters, when revising scenes set in the same place, or when checking whether a setting is carrying the right story pressure.

How To Use It

Start with the description and location path, then inspect child locations and relationships. Use the Used here section to open scenes that take place in or refer to the location.

Example

The Blue Bedroom may have a child location such as a wardrobe and a relationship to the landing. Its detail page helps you see which scenes happen there and whether character movement still makes sense.

Writer Tip

A location page is most valuable when it records what affects story action: access, sightlines, sound, mood, secrets and changes over time.

Common Mistakes

  • Treating locations as decorative labels only.
  • Forgetting to update child spaces after changing a layout.
  • Losing track of which scenes use an important setting.
  • Keeping movement logic in private notes instead of visible location relationships.
