the path changes, so too must the traveler.

an unaltered path is both boon and affliction.

the path stretches beyond the House, beyond the world, beyond the very stars.

the wise traveler knows his destination.

beware the obstacle that seeks the path.

seek the direction or another will take you.

lead not for glory, but so that others may find your path.

the traveler who seeks only the path's end has yet to find the beginning.

blessed is the traveler whose path chooses him.

guide others as you would be guided.

honoring the path is as much duty as burden.

the traveler endures the journey; the path endures the traveler.

the traveler journeys when it is time to follow the path, not when it is convenient to do so.

no paths cross without purpose.

the traveler and the path are alone until they journey together.

divert a path without cause and condemn your soul to eternity of wandering.

harness ambition and it will fuel the length of your journey.

direction takes many forms.

nothing is lost on the path that cannot be found on another.

choose your direction wisely.

the path is your only home.
