So, recently after the pc's asked an npc to scout out a building astrally, a question
popped into my mind.
How does a magician/spirit find their way on the astral?
example situation, Sammie asks mage to go scout out a building in Redmond, Mage is currently
in Tacoma. The Sammie gives the mage the physical address.
Can the magician find this place without physically going to the building, then scouting from just
outside.
Of course the npc in question has an issue with astrally projecting while not in a ward of some sort.

If there is some fluff i missed on this, please throw it my way.
