==Landmarks and the WALK TO command==
There are a number of landmarks over sapience that are known to all by the age of 18, and so if you are within 50 rooms of the landmark and not in a subdivision or the wilderness you can move towards it by the use of a simple command.
WALK TO <landmark>
- This will move you one room closer to the landmark providing that you are able to walk normally. It takes roughly one second of balance, and so it is impractical to use in combat, although if you are lost it is a great help.
DISTANCE TO <landmark>
- This will tell you how far away the landmark is from your current location or if it is further than 50 steps away.
