Go Exploring
You know you're not going to be able to sleep -- more the pity,
because you know you'll need it more now than you ever have in your
life. And all you wanted when you dozed off earlier was a way out of
your troubles!
It takes a lot of effort and willpower to get out of the immensely
comfortable nest, but you eventually manage. The aerie is pitch dark,
and you drop to your knees to feel what it is that you're standing on.
It feels like highly-polished wood. You try to find the edges, but
you can't. Reassured that the platform is huge, you set off toward
the only light.
As you approach the blue-white light, you hear a whispered voice, and
soft singing. You also realize that the light and sounds are coming
from a strange structure, like a thatch-roofed nest with a door.
