David:
It took a fair while, from how he felt, it must have been around 10 minutes, no more than half an hour.
David knew he finally had done it right when he passed the same set of flowers from when they started the shadow walking along the path. Except for them being on their left side now rather than their right, so David knew he had turned them around.
"All right, I did it. Let's see if I can take us all back to Earth then." He said with a smile of victory on his face.
The whole multiverse was open to him now, but he wanted to see home first. He turned his mind to his home on Earth, though sometimes the thoughts of his goals along the way.

Travel Through Shadow:
10 or higher: you arrive where you meant to arrive or find what you meant to find.
7-9: you arrive at a place like your intention, but not the same thing.
The three men on horseback come to... a gravel road.
On that road, there is... a gas station. All righty...
However...
The gas station is surrounded by a high barricade of thick logs, pointed at the top.
The station itself is visible from the road because there's a large gate in the middle of the wall, on iron hinges, and the gate is currently open, apparently being repaired. A crew of five short, squat men, each around five feet tall, are working on repairing one side of the gate. "Hurry, men, hurry..." says one...
"You think we're not hurrying?" says another in reply.
"Look!" says a third, pointing to the young Amberites.
The men all stop and stare for a few seconds.
"Great Jupiter, lads," says the first man calls, "get in here, quick! What're you doing riding those around like that? You know how
they are around horses...!"
