Feature: Celestial Guide
When you seek to understand or navigate the blurred boundaries between the Feywild, the mortal realm, and the celestial plane, you possess an innate sense that guides you towards answers. This insight might lead you to hidden portals, ancient fey groves, starlit altars, or beings who hold the knowledge you seek.
