A player can determine their location by the direction of the [[Astronomy|sun's, moon's, or stars']] movement over the course of the day. For the purposes of these charts, the player is always at the "top" of the world. The more vertical the sun, the closer the player is to an [[:Category:Location|equator]]. The more horizontal the sun, the closer the player is to a [[:Category:Location|pole]].
