"Well done, Miss Delia. Navigators truly are a captain's right-hand."
Compasses can work all day without rest, but Navigators cannot. Under normal sailing conditions, a simulated Sentry with various abilities can take over their post. The Navigator profession trades combat ability for more auxiliary transcendent abilities. Even at a Low Sequence, they are considered the best support. Sentries can signal obstacles, issue crisis warnings, and detect underwater reefs. They can even maintain constant contact with nearby lighthouses, providing helmspeople with assistance for positioning and course corrections. By the Middle Sequence, even auto-piloting is not a problem.
Byron knew that Black Sorcery could extract the souls of Navigators or sailors to create artificial Cursed Objects to aid in navigation.
Delia beamed. "Thank you for your praise, Captain."
