"You're the Traveler!" He shouts, sitting on a log.
"Yes, I am, and I'm here to tell you a tale, one of the Flaming Horse." You reply, sitting next to him.

When the man died, his spirit became one with the horses, he became know as The Headless Horseman, because he had lost his head during war.
"So that's where he came from." The man says, standing up.
"Yes, and remember this story, for it will guide you through life." You say, standing up, and walking off into the forest.
