At the end of the path is a small clearing. Moosy trees give way to the night sky, and a small shrine is illuminated by the light of fireflies and the moon above. You see this shrine is dedicated to the goodest boy possible, a cactus named The Chief. Leave an offering if you wish. Also near the shrine's altar is a glowing crystal orb, appropriately labelled as The Mystery Orb. This glowing crystal orb is what has illuminated the pathway with a dim blue glow. Peer into it and see what's what.
