You think you know the forest, you think you know the trees. The world is not that simple though and you'll soon come to see.
Because the woods are for exploring and getting lost and being free. You are not a creature that will find it quite so easy.
To navigate, to know, to feel the forest floor is not a gift you get as someone who's never been here before. But you'll learn soon enough, you'll find this place is welcoming.
Because in the end, we all return to the forest, we all fall into the dirt.
We all lay down and we all die. We all return to the forest and become earth and leaves and stone.
So know that you'll die here, as all of us do, but you'll be something more after, this is far from doom.
This is the way of the world, the way of life and death and rebirth. This, this my friend, is the way the universe thrives.
