   As Coltan examines his surroundings, he finds a trail of food, cloth, and discarded trinkets that lead into the brush. A few hundred feet away, he finds his belongings discarded in the middle of the forest. Nothing is missing or damaged. There is no sign of what brought Coltan’s possessions here.

Mysterious Symbol and Temple

   Among his belongings, Coltan finds an item that closely matched the amulet from his visions. As in the vision, he feels inexplicably drawn to it. As soon as Coltan touches the amulet, a pulse of divine energy ripples from him, causing the amulet to vanish from his hands. The pulse flattenes the surrounding vegetation, creating an unnatural clearing similar to the one in his visions. The cleared plants also reveal overgrown ruins nearby:

   A crumbling stone structure lies among the undergrowth. Its roof is pierced by the trunk of an immense tree, but its walls are mostly intact. A large, empty doorframe leads inside.

   Coltan feels supernaturally drawn toward the place, as if a familiar voice were calling his name. As he approaches the door, he hears faint voices inside.

   That’s fine. I’m going to rule that Coltan chewed on his hard tack in frustration at his belongings being scattered about before he went and retrieved them. Maybe he found them first, right there by them, and he decided he needed breakfast before he gathered up all his stuff—and maybe had to fight a would-be messy burgler.

   Some of this is a little bit “cut-scene”-ish and normally I’d allow a lot more player-agency, but in this case, reacting immediately to things is fine, but don’t go too far ahead.

   Incidentally, you don’t need to limit yourself to just you and Katlina—you could have been traveling with a caravan—it’s up to you. The important thing is that you’ve found yourself alone.
