Oh, that reminds me, I also lost the orb at the beginning because it was ther ethen disappeared, so deciding to follow it wasn't easy, I found the water, I found a map edge, ran along trees, then found a path. before finding the orb again. I think having it in sight a little longer would encourage me to take after it straight away, but I tend to break things, my first instinct is to do what the game doesn't want me to do, haha.
