simulsimul: (poisons the truth)

[Kratos sends over a mental affirmative. There's air to speak, now, but they're still moving fast enough that bothering to breathe to speak aloud would be impractical, especially when he doesn't know how sharp Skulduggery's hearing is.

[The book does have a page like that -- and Kratos can tell directions using a planet's electrical field. But while the page had indicated that 'north' was 'up', rather emphatically, knowing that is useless to him without knowing which direction the people from Earth consider 'upwards'.

[This is sent as a follow up, a vague sense of dissatisfaction at not knowing which of the cardinal points is most valuable to them. On Aselia, the leading cardinal point is east -- due to the rising of the sun and the magnetic pole created by the Tree on the Holy Ground.

[Earth's magnetism should, at least, be easy to figure out. Kratos's next unspoken query is which direction the sun rises here on Earth. From there, he should be able to figure out the rest; there is a definite magnetic pole at cross angles to the rising sun.]
