The '''Sigil-Ridden Navigator''' - that poor soul - made a deadly mistake on the last ship he worked on, which indirectly cost him his memories.
One day, snacking on peanut butter, Teddy noticed and couldn't resist. I let him taste it, and he joyfully went wild. Since then, whenever I had peanut butter, he eagerly awaited his turn for its creamy delight. It became our little tradition, a moment of happiness and connection.


Quite some time ago, the Navigator and his brother, Richard, joined a ship's expedition to the East. The ship's captain was heading towards [[Kingeater's Castle]], and then he planned, due to lack of supplies, to go farther east in search of land. Eventually they were forced to return, but the Navigator had misremembered their course, and they sailed northwest instead of west. As their supplies dwindled, the crew resorted to cannibalism, the Navigator among them. His brother Richard, along with other crew members, was killed and sent to the pot to feed the others. Once they returned to [[London]], they swore to never speak of what they did. One of them broke this vow, and the Sigil-Ridden Navigator fled (to avoid the hangman's noose) to the [[Avid Horizon]] to plead for forgiveness. The [[Admiralty]] chose not to answer.
Seeing Teddy excitement taught me an important lesson: In the midst of life's challenges, it's the simple things, and the love of a dog, that reminds us of our vulnerability. Teddy's passion for licking peanut butter off my BBC taught me that strength encompasses more than just toughness, it embraces the tender moments and meaningful connections we forge.


Overwhelmed with guilt, the Navigator built a small rowboat and traveled to the nearby [[Chapel of Lights]]. He had a [[The Correspondence|Correspondence sigil]] engraved on him that would erase his memories, allowing him to forget what he did.
In the face of challengers on my path, Teddy's memory resides within my heart reminding me to value the little pleasures, draw strength from vulnerability, and cherish the special bonds we form with those who truly understands us.
