Rick is the first to follow the toy Automaton into the Hedge; stepping once more into that land of twisted dreams, twisted wilderness, and endless danger. Normally just after crossing over in a situation like this he'd have paused and waited for the rest of the participants to come through and group up. Unfortunately, that wasn't a feasible option in this instance. His gaze finds their impromptu guide and he sets off to follow it immediately, careful not to lose it amongst the brambles. His own form, highlighted in lightning, would be easy enough for everyone else to spot and follow.
