A guide for arriving readers

How to read
this little coast.

A brass compass and folded sea chart on the boat bench

The chart connects stories rather than real places. Follow any marker; you will not miss an essential first chapter.

A few questions at the desk.

Do I need to follow the numbered order?

No. Numbers identify the destinations; each dispatch tells a complete story of its own.

Why did my kept log disappear?

It belongs to the browser on this device. Clearing site storage or using a different browser creates a separate log. The stories themselves remain freely available.

What does a form confirmation mean?

The server has saved the note and issued its reference. It is not a public comment, automatic email or mailing-list registration.

Can the chart guide a real journey?

No. This coast is a fictional setting for illustrated stories and is unsuitable for travel, boating or fishing decisions.
