I haven't seen one of your kind

since I was a young man.

Seeing you here, alive...

Who's your strongest seer?

That would be me.

I'm Arra.

The boy here has visions of this place.

I need to know where it is.

The man in black.

We managed to do

some serious damage, sir...

- but it didn't fall.

- None of that matters.

I found the one.

This kid's going to

bring down the tower...

all by his lonesome.

- Where is this child?

- He's here...

on mid-world...

looking for an old friend of mine,

Roland of Eld.

Wait, I thought

all the gunslingers were dead.

Roland's always had

an annoying ability...

to resist my magics.

So I killed everyone

he ever cared about.

Last I heard, he was roaming

the Mohaine aimlessly.

- That's where the boy is going.

- Mohaine desert? Isn't that...?

Vast. Yes.

And so is this boy's shine.

I'll send our trackers

in the region, sir.

This will get worse.

I don't have anything

that can help with that.

You need to rest, let it heal.

I'll be fine.

Thankee, Sai.

You've come all the way

from keystone earth to find him.

His shine is beyond anything

I've ever seen.

Shine?

Psychic powers.

Very few are born with this gift.

Often, the power is so slight,

people don't even know they have it.

Your shine burns so brightly, Jake.

You have potential

I can't even begin to understand.

Whoa.

Her voice was in my head.

Your gift is extraordinary, Jake.

It made you see across worlds.

The drawing.

What about the drawing?

Concentrate.

Share your visions with me.

Open up.

Show me.

The man in black...

Jake.

Fled across the desert.

Tell me.

Where is he?

Northern wastelands.

That's more than six months of travel.

But you can get me there

faster than that.

The man in black and his men

keep track of all portal travel.

- I need to get there.

- Portals.

We couldn't help you,

even if we wanted to.

The only way to access their territories

is from one of their own bases.

Then I'll make it on foot.

Wait.

The fake-skins...

they take kids

from different worlds, right?

They tried to take me from New York.

- Doesn't that mean that they...?

- They have a base there.

With a portal that can take me

right to this place.

You're gonna send us to keystone earth.

We're diverting power

to the generators.

The portal will be ready shortly.

Do they have guns in your world?

Yeah.

And bullets, are they as rare

as they are here?

You're gonna like earth.

A lot.

We agreed we'd never use the portal

unless the village was in danger.

They will find out we have it and come.

We can't disobey a gunslinger.

It's the law.

- How do you know what he is?

- Arra.

You must have read him.

What do you see?
