No-one knew his name, but the merchants and travellers who frequented the Grand Road Number Seven knew him as The Pointless Walker.
He walked all the way from Rejuk to Holade City, then back, and then repeated. The stories say he used to do the round trip in a week, but now he took almost a full month to do one half.
People would occasionally offer him a lift, but he always refused, as he walked, hunched over and stepping along slowly.
I ended up helping him when I stepped on the key he was looking for, end point first.
