→‎Paths: separating the paths
=== Starting and Following a Path ===
On certain tiles, there can be a pop-up after finishing meditating that allows you to start a path. There are thought to be many paths, though some are more easily found than others. Verified paths are: [[Path of Knowledge|Knowledge]], [[Path of Power|Power]], [[Path of Insanity|Insanity ]] and [[Path of Love|Love]]. There are also rumoured to be the Path of Honor.
To join a path you need to have at least 15 meditating skill.
For the subsequent questions of each path, the dialog starts as follows: "If the path of X contains the truth or simply is the figment of someone's imagination, you do not know. Nonetheless, it poses an interesting challenge. The following question springs to mind", and is then followed by a new question with five possible [[Meditating answers|answers]].
