Oliver found the compass in his grandfather's attic — brass, dented, and warm to the touch. Unlike normal compasses, this one didn't point north. It pointed to whatever you needed most. When Oliver was thirsty, it pointed to the kitchen. When he missed his dog, it pointed to the park where they used to walk. Useful, but ordinary. Until the day it pointed straight down. 'Down?' Oliver stared at it. He was standing in his backyard. He grabbed a shovel. Two feet down, he hit something metal — a trapdoor, rusted but real. Below it, stone steps spiralled into darkness. The compass glowed faintly, still pointing down. Oliver climbed down thirty-seven steps (he counted) and found himself in an underground garden. Real plants growing under crystal ceilings that caught sunlight from somewhere far above. In the centre, a stone pedestal with a journal. His grandfather's handwriting: 'Dear Oliver, if you're reading this, the compass chose you. This garden has been in our family for two hundred years. Every generation adds something. I added the oak tree. Your grandmother added the lavender. Now it's your turn. What will you grow?' Oliver looked at the compass. It spun freely now, waiting. The adventure was his to choose.
