Description

History

The navigator was once of the king’s house. All know that he was the one that directed the movement of their manse. All know that it was her mistake that caused the collision. All know that this story cannot be verified.

Appearance

The navigator is fragmented and unclear. Sometimes he is a wise and formal man. Sometimes she is a vicious and reckless waif. Always their finery is cracked and broken.

Principles

In heart, the navigator refuses to give up trying to remedy their mistake. In forge,they have the means to restore what is broken. In lantern they illuminate the way back, though one could accuse this to be one of moth's madnesses

Worship

Cult

The navigator grants their favour to those who wish to redeem themselves, and fix past mistakes. regretful criminals and penitents ask her for counsel and him for perseverance and them for the assurance that there’s a way out.

More tangentially. The navigator' aspect of wayfinding remains strong enough to be invoked by guides and, indeed, navigators in the waking world. Though the paths once known as safe have been made perilous by the upheaval of the collision.

6. Ascension: Phrase: Every moments seems to take forever. The air is heavy with anticipation for what is coming. There is still an apprehension left before I shatter myself and remake myself anew. I know this to be the sixth mark
7. Ending: I have shattered myself against the moment that recalls the collision. I have seen all there is and all there can be. Sometimes, my mind is lucid and whole enough to act on that knowledge. I will not cease. Not for as long as I have yet to play my part in the plan
