Well, good luck, and stay on the road. There's a village a day or two from here, and there's bound to be someone there who can help you on your way, but don't be tempted to stray from the path, no matter what you see. There's a lot of nasty things in these woods, and they have their ways of tempting folk into their clutches, so mind how you go.
—Brother Number One, The Book of Lost Things
Once we have a scent, we never lose it. Don't stray too far from the path... because I'll be waiting.
