Bonus: The Hexagon Trail – A Runner’s Eternal Map
Long ago, in a world where landscapes were locked inside hexagonal frames, an endurance runner sought to collect them all. Each time he conquered a race, a new hexagon lit up on his body: a cactus from the desert, a turtle from the coast, a mountain goat from the alpine peaks. The Capitol rose from his leg like a checkpoint, reminding him of where it all began.
But there were always empty frames—shapes left unfilled, waiting for the next adventure. These hexagons whispered, urging him to push further, to cycle harder, to run longer. The runner knew the map would never be complete, and that was the point.
Every finish line was not an ending, but another frame in the story. With each step, his body became a living atlas of endurance, forever charting the places he had pushed beyond his limits and the ones he had yet to reach.
