If you notice the fog getting thicker, you’re heading in the wrong direction.

Keep following the embers of the flames until you reach a torch and two lanterns.

Use the blowing wind as your guide, stopping regularly to see if it has changed direction.

If you get off track, you’ll end up back at the area with the two lanterns.

When the fog begins to clear, you’ll know that you’re almost there.

Take the path between the two rock faces to reach Kork Forest.
