The wayfinder's pact
The Wayfinder’s Pact is the courier’s guild of Faia, managing all communication, delivery networks, and optimizing travel routes. With stations in every single settlement, it is thanks to their efforts that messages, goods, and Faians can efficiently reach their destination. While the guild mostly works behind the scenes, the Wayfinder’s Pact plays a truly vital role in facilitating the interconnectedness of Faia’s scattered islands.

STANDING & FUNDING
The Wayfinder’s Pact mostly operates behind the scenes. Consequently, it is not as widely recognized as most other guilds. Some Faians don’t even know of thheir existence, simply taking their daily delivery services for granted. Regardless, the Pact is indispensable in enabling trade and communication, and highly respected by the organizations it works with. The Pact is funded through service fees for message and cargo transport. It often works with other organizations, such as the Lightkeeper’s Council, the Adventurer’s Guild, and the Merchant’s Guild.
