The world map just opened up, but everything's in Japanese. Mountains you can't cross, towns you can't find, vehicles you don't know how to use. You're wandering aimlessly because you can't read 北 (north) from 南 (south) or tell a 洞窟 (cave) from a 城 (castle). This book gives you the complete exploration and navigation vocabulary - from basic directions to dungeon navigation to airship travel. Never get lost on the world map again.
