You will journey to the farthest reaches of knowledge, ascend the peaks of ambition, and descend into the abyss of doubt—only to return, full circle, to the doorstep of your own soul. Yet this time, the familiar will be unmasked revealing what was always present but never truly seen.
The final destination is not an uncharted land but the rediscovery of home with eyes unclouded by illusion.

Summons to Purpose
There comes a moment—you step into a place you’ve known your entire life, yet something is different. The light bends in a way it’s never did before, the air carries a note of something unspoken, and the walls, unchanged, whisper secrets you somehow failed to hear.
Nothing has moved. But you have changed.
This is the paradox of discovery: what you seek is not out there, but in how you see.
You were taught that wisdom is found in distance—in moving beyond yourself, in seeking new ground, in escaping the past. You searched, you wandered, you climbed, you descended—certain that truth was waiting beyond some final horizon. And yet, every path, every conquest, every revelation led you back to where you started.
But this time, you understand.
The landscape did not transform—you did. What was once ordinary now gleams with significance. What once seemed dull now hums with meaning. The question is not whether you will return. The question is:
Will you recognize it?
Or will you keep searching, mistaking motion for progress, mistaking distance for wisdom, mistaking the unfamiliar for truth?
Know this—if you look upon your world and see nothing new, then you have not yet begun to see.
