What happens in week 5
Deep in the Whispering Wood, a great gnarled tree leans across the path, its roots grown around something older. A stone, half-buried — and from inside it, very faint, a heartbeat. Your partner kneels and presses an ear to the root. You don't have to; you feel it in your chest already, in time with the stone.
