Things I've Learned: part 3
- If you hear a whistle in the woods; no you don't. Don't follow it. Don't find it. Certainly, don't whistle back.
- In the forest a knock or a scream are also never what they seem.
- Don’t stare too deeply into the woods; especially as the sun sets and the shadows aren't the only thing to grow longer and cover ground.
- Stairs in the woods never lead where, or when, they should. What you pay for passage won't be something you wish to part with.
- Never say you own name in a dream; if you're so aware it's more than it seems.
- If you see it don’t aknowledge it. Carry on if you wish to carry on.
- Vampirism doesn't apply only to living things
- Shadows tend to hold more than the absence of light
- Gaps and Tunnels are liminal places; never seek more than the other side for your own sake

Things I've Learned: part 2
- when walking at night face forward and keep your eyes on the path
- its impossible to see strangers in your dreams. remember this fact.
- sage does little but irritate if the windows and doors are closed
- sudden chills are never random
- rotten food left to keep spoiling evokes rotten luck
- when watching the winds shift be sure not to be shifted along by them
- always repay in kind
- plants die for a reason, sometimes that reason has nothing to do with how well you care for them and everything to do with how they care for you
- always acknowledge the flickering at the edge of your vision, annoying as they may be
- always, always check your blind spots
- always be courteous to your hosts or the consequences could be dire down the road

Things I’ve Learned
- don’t drink water in the dark
- don’t look out windows at night
- if you feel it watching don’t look for it just hurry on your way, but to be safe if you feel running for some reason would insult This One then don’t
- take only dead wood from forests, fallen berries and flowers are safe too, the living things are Not For You
- NEVER stomp on the mushrooms
- stay on the animal paths
- leave an offering in the woods to be left in peace during your walks
- the hills and fields may seem open and empty but They Never Are
- listening to the wind is fine but you should never reply to it, if you feel it shift it’s time to go
- if your dog won’t go near it neither should you
- if It’s in your room then shut your eyes or otherwise don’t acknowledge It, It will eventually lose interest
- ghosts can and will lie to you
- don’t give anything your full name
- if you feel weak, don’t rest - leave
- your shadow doesn’t always belong to you
- check your seats before entering your vehicle, do not look back for ANYTHING after
- better yet keep things in your seats
- generally if you suddenly feel you shouldn’t look in a certain direction, be in a certain place, or do a certain thing then please trust your gut
