Lodestar serves as Ron's sighted guide. Correct posture (when the guide is a human, anyway) is to have the blind person walking behind and slightly to the side, with their hand on the guide's shoulder or upper arm. If the way forward becomes narrow, the guide puts their hand behind their back, and the blind person slides their hand down to hold the guide's wrist and moves to walk directly behind the guide. When handling a guide dog, the dog is on the left and the person's arm is slightly forward, with the dog leading the way but not pulling (unless the dog hasn't been worked in a few days in which case they'll be pulling for sure because they're excited to finally be working again). Lodestar wraps his tail around Ron's arm and tugs gently to alert him to narrow passages.
After the mass router trunk between Sol and Focus is established many other Knights of the Sun volunteer as sighted guides. The difference in lifespan means yinrih can commit to help a human for life.
