I was reviewing what Sunraku's travel plans on Bilac's map in episode 22, and they didn't jive with what Sunraku was saying about where places were located.
I crudely pasted together screenshots of his travel plans to make a map:
It turns out that the last parts where Sunraku is pointing out that the Lightless Barrens are beyond Eleventar is using a view of the map that is rotated almost 180 degrees, so indeed, the Lightless Barrens are farther away.
The travel plans are also drawn on Bilac's map rotated about 90 degrees counter-clockwise
So the geography is consistent, but the map orientations keep being spun around, i.e. there is no common North-on-top orientation the way we usually use maps.
edit: Uploaded slightly cleaner version of the travel map
