Guardian of the Grail



Where does it lead? It's a nice path in the middle of the forest, surrounded by some wonderful scenery and a fairly steep drop-off (not pictured). But the vegetation is dense, getting in the way, and an approach forces the question.

Where does it lead?

Perhaps it leads to an enchanted land, inhabated by unicorns and giant three-and-a-half-toed sloths. Perhaps on the other side is the end of a rainbow, with a pot full of gold. Or maybe it's the fountain of youth. There are so many things that could be there. And there isn't even /really/ anything that says that they can't all be there, is there? Why there could be a time-space anomaly just twenty feet away, and any second a knight might come crashing down the path looking for the holy grail. Or maybe I'll see myself, wondering exactly where I'll have been coming from.

There are so many places it could go, so many things it could be. And still I wonder, where does it lead? I know that a couple weeks ago it led to the other side of the hill, but maybe I just approached it from the wrong side. Perhaps it leads to the huge bear, waiting on the other side of the camera.

That's what the knight that came crashing through the forest thought, at least.
