He has learned of the ocean by the mouth of Rannoch, but what lay beyond the ocean itself is a mystery. The everwinding streams and rivers his Uncle speaks of will only take him so far; deep into the underbrush and depths of many forests, pathways to the relms of other territories, but it is not the little things he looks for. "What do you suppose lies beyond the ocean?" There is a faraway look within his eyes as he asks, contemplating answers that Cicero may not have; fantasizing a land beyond the great body of water that is both vast and complicated. A land that fits his ideals, but one that does not likely exist.
