"The Navigator" from the By Thistle By Thimble collection

This week's Free story comes from the By Thistle By Thimble collection. It's called "The Navigator."A village builds a ship according to the instructions from their leader, The Captain. The Captain has left them to voyage to an uncharted territory, and, once the ship is completed, they are to follow. However, the people decide they do not wish to leave their homes and risk their comfortable lives. Only Sophia, the weaver's daughter, is bold enough to remind them all of their promise to The Captain. The people choose to ignore her words; however, they find that fate has a bigger plan for Sophia — one that they cannot ignore.
