'''Nafti''' was one of the [[Uvara]], a legendary society on [[Roshar]].{{book ref|sa1|57}}
== Appearance and Personality ==
When the [[Wandersail]] wrecked on the islands of the Uvara, she served as a guide to [[Derethil]] and his crew. When the rioting started after the discovery of the emperor's death, she left the islands with the crew of the Wandersail and explained that the reason the Uvara were in such anguish was that they realized that they alone were responsible for all the death and violence they had caused.▼
The Uvara are noted as having "long, limber bodies".{{book ref|sa1|57}} They wear shells in their hair that are not found elsewhere on Roshar, and monochrome robes.{{book ref|sa1|57}}
== History ==
[[Hoid]] relates the story of a ship named the ''[[Wandersail]]'', captained by King [[Derethil]], to [[Kaladin]]. The ship attempts to sail through a [[highstorm]] on the open seas and is wrecked on the uncharted islands of the Uvara. The Uvara initially seem like a peaceful people, but Derethil soon realizes that they violently kill each other if they make any kind of mistake, in fear of displeasing their emperor.{{book ref|sa1|57}}

== Historicity ==
The tale of the ''Wandersail'' is known in several nations of Roshar, but some regard it only as a myth.{{book ref|ob|i|13}} Hoid answers cryptically when Kaladin questions the story's authenticity.{{book ref|sa1|57}} At the same time, there may be elements of truth to the story.{{wob ref|1163}}
