Description

The paths twist like serpents - and when the sun sets, they may be different from the day. If I walk this with nothing more than a candle, I might emerge unchanged. Or, I could seek to lose myself within their cul-de-sacs...

Events

• The hedges seem almost insubstantial in the moonlight, leaves clear as glass, branches no more than air, baring the gaps beneath. I feel as though if I were to step too close, I would fall through as if there was no barrier to stop me.
  • I return home with my hands and knees caked in dirt, leaves and twigs sticking from my hair at odd angles. If anyone were to see the scratches on my skin, or my wild grin, they would surely consider me a lunatic.
  • Provides Subtle Fracture
• The darkness wraps around me like an old blanket from childhood, comforting and impossibly vast. Each star glimmers like diamonds in the velvet depths of the sky. This is the night I grow nostalgic for, when all terrors are forgotten.
  • In the light of the candle, humanity seems to have faded from existence. Along the winding paths, the only other life I meet is a tiny lizard skittering into the hedgerows. I am alone, and I am free.
  • Provides Contentment
• In the dark of the new moon, the hedges and pathways turn to subterranean tunnels winding through a vast cavern. The cloudless sky turns the innumerable stars into the cold light of phosphorescent fungi, glittering far above.
  • Did I walk along the pathways, through them, or beyond them? The night air grows stale and humid in my lungs, almost before I breathe it in. The grass dampens with dew, or perhaps, with thousands of watchful eyes...
  • Provides Glimmering
• In the darkness, the paths seem to twist. The stars are shaded from my sight. The light I brought with me cannot penetrate the dark around me. Is that something I hear behind me? I should probably go...
  • I return home sweating and shaking. This is not a night I should dwell on, but I am safe at home now. That shadow outside the window wasn't anything to worry about.
  • Provides Dread
• In the darkness, the paths seem to twist. All I see are the stars - perhaps if I walk this road I can ascend to the sky? They blaze down upon me, their cold light searing my bones. I must embrace them - how can I lift beyond the treetops?
  • I am roused from my sleep when I fall from the branches of tree. My body is unbruised - but my mind, oh my mind. I wander home, dazed by the brilliance of the night.
  • Provides Fascination
• In the chill of the night, the path and the grass and the hedges are indistinguishable. I nearly trip, but I catch myself. This park is a challenge, and I shall overcome it with all my strength. The night air invigorates and renews me.
  • My heart pumps, my limbs warm. I am embraced by the brisk night air, and I will carry it with me...
  • Provides Vitality
