The West Gate

Tessa's Old-Vintage Thornroot

TRAIL · 4 days · easy

Destination: Magda's wandering camp, wherever it stands this week (and home again)

The central challenge

A four-day round-trip to find Magda's wandering camp and ask whether she still has the twelve-year-old thornroot tincture Tessa once made for her. Magda may give it; she may not. The asking is the test.

Magda's camp moves on a rhythm Magda knows and no-one else does. The eastern milestone-keeper will point. The keeper after that will point. Eventually you arrive. -- P
