A one-eyed man leads you from the woods to the ocean, and as you watch clouds roll in over the water, he tells you about storms, mountain fires, root systems, and the moon. He asks what you know about traveling, and before you can reply, he unfolds a map with tiny, old-fashioned farm tools drawn along the coastlines. Before you can ask where to go or even what his name is, the one-eyed man disappears.
The wind kicks up, and a path materializes.
