He has a difficult phone conversation with his father before leaving, who is disappointed Steve isn’t choosing to visit him, angry he isn’t working. His mother is understanding, knowing he needs to find himself.
He hitches a ride at the end of the Hood to Coast route he has been walking but sees an unusual looking old woman walking swiftly up the narrow mountainous road and joins her. As they stride up the road he learns to walk confidently close to the edge and she encourages him to choose danger and risk. They arrive at the top of the forested mountain road to a tremendous view of the world below. She reveals herself as Dianna the Roman Goddess with wings on her feet and shining helmet and flies off, leaving him to boldly continue his journey.
