Rules for the road when traveling in northern Europe
- Memorize your route. Your map can and will lie.
- Take the safest roads.
- Mountain passes shift between our world and another - do not leave your car when you are crossing a mountain pass.
- If you see something you believe to be a bear, do not photograph it.
- The snow does strange things to our eyes.
- Borders shift.
- Do not speak to anyone you meet further than a kilometer from the nearest building.
- Not everything that appears to be human is.
- You may eat at rest stops but leave as soon as possible. If there are no other guests there, leave immediately.
- Don’t listen to birdsongs for too long - they will start to tell you things you’d rather not hear.
- There are no shortcuts.
- Something is looking at you, but it is indifferent to your existence.
- The things beneath the soil would rather stay undisturbed. Don’t dig.
- Bring a mirror and a clear head.
- Leave all religious items at home. They will make a scent trail.
- There is a reason we fear wolves, but it isn’t the one you think.
- Do not touch scissors on the ground. Ever.
- The wind will bite you. Cover up.
- The longer you spend in the woods, the stranger the air gets.
- Stay calm.
- Never approach old houses.
- If there is mist on the ground, do not be afraid.
- Windmills are further away than they seem.
- Don’t look into lakes.
- Some farms don’t always exist. Don’t worry if you can’t find it on your return trip.
- Don’t drink slow-running river water. If you do, there will invariably be a dead animal upstream.
- Bridges are sacred places. Do not disrespect them.
- Avoid wetlands.
- There are no children out here, only false ones.
- If you suddenly get lost, stay very still.
