====The Ordering of the Heavens for the Guidance of Ships====

''Copied in the Temple of the High Observatory for the Guild of Navigators.''

The seas are wide and without boundary, and the winds are changeable. Therefore the gods, in their mercy, placed signs in the heavens so that those who travel upon the waters might not be lost.

The Sacerdotisa, whose duty it is to observe the movements of the sky, keep watch over these signs. From the highest towers of the temples they mark the rising and setting of the stars, the wandering of the constellations, and the turning of the seasons. These observations are preserved in the temple records so that the wisdom of many generations is not lost.

From these records are prepared the Star Charts of Navigation, which are issued to the captains and navigators of the fleet.
