Mnemonic

Your legs trudge through a misty forest. A ghostly whisper drifts from the trees: 'This way…' Each time you move your legs, another whisper beckons from deeper in, revealing an ancient path hidden beneath the fallen leaves.
Additional thoughts
Picture ghost-breath curling around your ankles (legs + whisper fusing at ground level) forming a glowing trail—the Path materializes where sound meets step.
Quick recall
Your legs follow a whisper through the mist, uncovering a hidden path.
