Lore:Southron Pole Star
The Southron pole star is a star that serves as a fixed point in the sky. As a pole star, it is used for navigation due to its stable position near the south celestial pole, although the star is actually slightly offset from true south. Its position holds relevance in the use of the calcinator. Traditional Argonian alchemists from Black Marsh have a belief that the phases of the moons and their alignment with stars determine the precise orientation of the calcinator. Following the full moon, for each subsequent night, the Calcinator should be turned clockwise by one twenty-eighth of a full circle. However, if the alchemist finds themselves closer to the Southron pole star than the Northern Sisters, the rotation should be counter-clockwise instead.[1]
