Toward the Reef

The metal ship sailed across the open blue waters of the Palanic Ocean, making its way alone in a direction many didn't tread upon.

There were a few ships that went toward the Great Reef, but those that were there only wished to use the Great Reef as nothing more than a visual guide to help them circumnavigate the world. 

Since the large Great Reef circled the entire world, it became an easy rope to follow to go from one place to another without depending too much upon a compass or stars.

All they had to do was look for known regions of the Great Reef and then start moving away from it.

Even then, they would stay far enough away from the reef so that it would only be in their vision. Getting close to the reef meant death in most circumstances.

Ning leaned against the metal railing at the front, feeling the everchanging cold and hot breeze that flew across the ocean.
