Description summary:
The description varies depending on your level of 
Associating with a Youthful Naturalist.
| Associating | Description |
|---|---|
| 681 | You will sip your coffee with the Naturalist. [...] In a café, weeks before you arrived [...]
[...] You'll remember his silhouette's shape: the outgrowth from his spine, and how it flexed like a finger. [...] How his 'finger' dipped into the coffee for a taste. |
| 682 | You will, indeed, have slept poorly. [...] You will dream about amber (bubbling in a bathtub) [...]
In your dream, the Naturalist will stumble from the tub [...] Two stalks will protrude from his back. He will scream, and his scream will be yours [...] [...] |
| 683 | Traders will barter for tapestries [...]
Five? Not enough. Six? Robbery! "Seventy-seven," the Naturalist [...] will have told you. Threads will run through his body. [...] [...] Under his skin, foreign objects will wriggle, straining all seventy-seven stitches. |
| 684 | The Stone Tentacle-Key in your hand will not be the Key buried between the Naturalist's vertebrae. He will have used another [...] for the surgery. [...] But when you look at the Key in your hand, [...] you'll recall how he once held another to the light. [...] |
| 685 | Vital essences will course through forking veins. Your notes from Port Cecil will cover the floor. [...] He will know where (and when) to wield the blade, cutting keyholes along the map's route. [...] He will walk the path, then trace the thread back to yesterday. |
| 686 | [...]
Keys will dangle from the Naturalist's body [...] His footprints [...] will be misshapen by most [...] standards. [...] "No riddles right now. The answers could throw us off-course," you'll remember him saying. [...] But when he sees where the forks lead, he will weep. |
