2: Path to the gate
As you follow the curving path past this point, you will come to a gate. This side, the world that you know. On the other, a different world, with different rules. Listen out for what might be in the trees, gliding through the sky. Did you see that fox slinking past? Maybe they’re leading you further in, a messenger from the otherworld.
Now let’s build our story.
What challenge is your character facing?
The world has been enchanted
A great danger threatens all
The weather is changing
A harvest has failed
They’re in a strange land
Invent something else
Describe the world around your character, its beauty and difficulties, but also how things have been changing recently. A new trouble is impacting both the character and the world.
