The forest was a great place. He almost never ran into others in it, and when the did they were generally people similar to himself. A few spirits rested here and there, scattered throughout the woods, and even they could provide pleasant company. All in all, the forest was a great place for his training to be a shaman, but also great for just obtaining peace of mind. It was a casual day for him, he didn't have anything to do - He just wandered around, having conversations with the deceased.
