Wayward Compass is a Charm in Hollow Knight. It shows the location of the Knight on the Map.
Usefulness
This Charm is useful for exploration and is good during a first playthrough. It is recommended to switch to something more combat-oriented when preparing for a boss battle.
Once a keen knowledge of the map's layout is attained, this Charm is no longer worthwhile.
How to Acquire
Bought from Iselda in Dirtmouth for 
220 after the first encounter with Cornifer.
