Somewhat impatiently, since (once again) it's not on time, you start to get on the bus that will take you to a job interview but stumble as the hand rail and step you were aiming for suddenly disappears.
Looking around, you find that have been (magically?) transported to some other place outside in a forest. After a few minutes to just convince yourself you actually seem to be seeing what your eyes tell you that you are seeing, you pick a direction and start walking. You're still scared, confused, and worried you'll be late, but you don't know what else to do. You nurse your half-spilled coffee as you walk.
After a while (long enough to have easily finished your coffee) you encounter a tall, stone wall that goes off in either direction. Following the wall a little distance, you find two large, wooden doors topped with faces sculpted from stone. You examine the face on the left closely.
