Navigators Circle [Festival Thread]

Svala pulled out a chunk of bark and carefully chewed off a smaller piece. She picked up the piece and set it in the bowl of water. She then delicately picked up the needle and set it on the piece of bark. Now all she had to do was wait. The needle twitched then slowly spun on the bark. It swayed for a moment back and forth in smaller and smaller arcs until at last it picked a direction. Svala grinned, pleased that her compass worked. She looked to the north where the needle pointed, taking in the mountains that were just visible in the distance. Now all she had to do was find a good way to carry all of this.
