You do your best to piece together the words you know, deduce the meaning of those you don't.
You're really engrossed in the story, despite struggling to decipher it and missing a fair share of words.
Son of a woodcutter, which parents died tragically after a madden spiritual wolf attacked.
The teenage grew in harmony with the woodlands, including plants and beasts, creating his own techniques.
Gar Ruk is now a young adult. Tall, strong, wielding is late fire double-edged axe, tracking the madden spiritual wolf which came back.
The Madden Wolf is tracked, found, fought. Feeling the danger, the losing wolf is strangely fading away - but Gar Ruk manage to follow suit.
This is the awakening of Gar Ruk's innate Planeswalking ability - not that he realized.
Gar Ruk hunts and kill the wolf, making a coat with the beast's fur. The world he's in is corrupted by men's madness - the reason of the wolf's anger.
Men attack the earth, dig with metal construct deep in the leylines, burning forests, poisoning earth, air and water.
Gar Ruk is deeply out of place. His cultivation staggers as the source necessary for his recovery is gone. He revolts. Fails to change things.
He breaks. Gives up. Turns into some kind of outcast, but you don't quite grasp how and why.
Until he reaches lowest of low, fells asleep in the ditches of a huge city, wake up in another. Next city is more realistic in your eyes, in a world where nature is wild and the land itself animates into spirits - land-spirits? That's a new one.
There are some insights to be taken from those story. The ability of Gar Ruk to simply find himself in another realm seems stronger than your Astral visit of beast plans. More problematic, too - having your body staying behind is good for anchoring yourself back.
You also remember the Snake mistress' ritual used to bring a few students with her in the mythical realm.
This book seemed to describe things in a way resonating with you - bringing new perspective to your own technique.
You'll need to work on it, sure. But with a bit of effort, you might easily improve your Meditation into the <span class="mu-s">Way of the Wandering Spiritual Beast Whisperer</span>
