You find yourself standing at the edge of a dense forest. The sun is setting, and the trees are casting long shadows across the forest floor. You can hear the sound of running water nearby and the chirping of crickets. As you take a closer look, you notice that the forest is full of strange plants and creatures that you’ve never seen before.
As you begin to explore the forest, you come across a small clearing. In the center of the clearing, you see a small cottage made of wood and stone. Smoke is rising from the chimney, and you can hear the faint sound of someone humming a tune. You notice a signpost next to the cottage that reads “Welcome to the Enchanted Forest”.

“Welcome, young adventurer,” she says. “What brings you to the Enchanted Forest?”
You explain that you were just exploring and stumbled upon the cottage. The woman invites you inside for some tea and to rest your feet. As you sit at her table, she tells you stories about the forest and the magical creatures that live within it.
After a while, she offers to give you a tour of the forest, but warns you to be careful of the dangerous creatures that also call it home.

As the night wears on, the celebration comes to an end, and the fairies bid you farewell. The woman thanks you for joining in and continues the tour through the forest.
As you walk, you come across a large, shimmering lake. The woman tells you that it is home to a powerful water spirit who can grant wishes to those who seek her out.
What do you do?
- Approach the lake and try to make contact with the water spirit.
- Ignore the lake and continue the tour with the woman.

You explain that you are a traveler and that you have heard she can grant wishes. The water spirit nods and asks what your wish is.
What do you wish for?
- Wealth and riches.
- Power and strength.
- Love and happiness.
(Choose your wish and I will describe the outcome.)
You wish for wealth and riches. The water spirit nods and disappears beneath the surface of the water. A few moments later, she reappears with a small, glittering box.
“Inside this box is a key,” she says. “This key will unlock a treasure trove filled with gold and jewels beyond your wildest dreams. But be warned, with great wealth comes great responsibility.”
She hands you the box and disappears back into the depths of the lake. You thank her and continue on your journey.
As you make your way back to the woman’s cottage, you notice that the forest has become darker, and the trees seem to be closing in on you. You hear the sound of growling and snapping twigs, and you realize that you are being followed by a pack of wolves.
What do you do?
- Stand your ground and fight the wolves.
- Try to outrun the wolves.
- Look for a place to hide.
(Choose your action and I will describe the outcome.)
You decide to try to outrun the wolves. You break into a sprint, hoping to put some distance between you and the pack. However, the wolves are fast, and they quickly catch up to you.
Just as you think they’re about to pounce, you hear a loud roar. Suddenly, a huge bear appears out of nowhere and charges at the wolves. The wolves scatter in fear, and the bear turns to face you.
“What are you doing in these woods?” the bear asks, its voice deep and rumbling.
You explain that you were just exploring and got lost. The bear nods and tells you that the Enchanted Forest can be dangerous for those who don’t know its ways.
“What brings you to these parts?” the bear asks.
You tell the bear that you’re just passing through and looking for adventure.
“Adventure, eh?” the bear chuckles. “Well, you’ve certainly found it here in the Enchanted Forest. Be careful, young traveler, and always watch your back.”
With that, the bear turns and disappears into the forest, leaving you alone once again.
What do you do?
- Try to find your way back to civilization.
- Continue exploring the Enchanted Forest.

“Welcome back, traveler,” she says. “I’m glad to see that you made it back safely.”
You thank her and ask if you can stay for the night. The woman nods and invites you inside. She prepares a simple meal of bread and cheese and offers you a warm blanket and a soft bed to sleep in.
As you drift off to sleep, you hear the woman humming a soft melody. It’s a lullaby, and it fills you with a sense of peace and comfort that you haven’t felt in a long time.
The next morning, you wake up feeling refreshed and ready for whatever adventures lie ahead.
What do you do?
- Ask the woman for more information about the Enchanted Forest.
- Set out on your own and explore the forest.
- Leave the Enchanted Forest and continue your journey elsewhere.
(Choose your action and I will describe the outcome.)
You decide to ask the woman for more information about the Enchanted Forest. She pours you a cup of tea and sits across from you at the small table.
“The Enchanted Forest is a place of magic and wonder,” she begins. “It’s home to many creatures and spirits, some friendly, and some not so much. The forest is always changing, and you never know what you might find around the next bend.”
You ask her if she knows of any particular places or creatures that are worth seeking out.
“Well, there’s the Fairy Circle, of course,” she says. “That’s where the fairies hold their celebrations. And then there’s the lake, home to the water spirit who grants wishes. But be careful what you wish for, traveler. The spirit’s gifts can come with a price.”
She pauses for a moment, sipping her tea. “As for creatures, there’s the great bear who roams these woods. He’s a powerful spirit, but he can be unpredictable. And then there are the wolves, always on the hunt for their next meal.”
You thank her for the information and finish your tea. As you get ready to leave, she hands you a small pouch.
“This contains some herbs that can protect you from harm,” she says. “Keep it with you on your journey.”
