Build your own adventure

[robinbloke]

You are standing outside a low stone building, there is a single door on this side that looks to be made of wood and metal. Behind you a trail winds back down the hill and away into the distance. It is approaching nightfall, the sun is tinging the sky and clouds pink with it's dying rays.
What do you do?

I will write you a "build your own adventure" style story if you leave a comment, just ask for a genre and give me a brief description of yourself and then say what you want to do, the rest will unfold...

Slowly i nod, raising to my feet i walk outside, to face the rising sun, offering communion with the kami, that the spirits of my ancestors be not displeased.

Once my morning rites are done i tidy and leave the building, pausing not for food nor drink, and striding towards the east, seeking the Broken-sword.

The morning is clear, no clouds in the sky and the sun is bright. A good omen for your journey.
The green mountains are five days walk east through terrain and populace that is increasing hostile, the first days will be easy, but the last few will have many dangers.

Ever alert I set a fast pace, i have no animal to care for, and have good sandals. The Kami will smile and provide for me, for i trust to fate. That the means of providing might seek my head i do not doubt, but i am Fade, and i am ready.

It has been three days since you spoke to the old man, your journey so far has been uneventful, even pleasant. The weather has been bright but now you are entering the foothills of the green mountains.
The mood of the area is darkening and as you approach a small gully on the trail the sounds of the animals around you fade away to quiet.
