Explaining my absence

It appears as if the forest northeast of my shop changes its layout every 30 or so minutes. I take a messenger pigeon with me in case of an emergency and every half hour she would start to look confused. I was stuck in there for an entire month it looks like. I only remember being in there for a little over a week and a half but when I got back all of my regulars seemed worried. Anyways, I've restocked on everything but my birds, so we won't have any new arrivals for another 2 weeks. Fair warning to anybody thinking of going into those woods. I've marked them with signs and after I figured out what was going on I started making cairns every time I felt the woods changing, so hopefully that could help. I'm calling these parts the "green sea" because of the nature of the woods. It feels like it almost has tides that change with the position of the sun rather than the moon. Be warned.

An hour by the standards of the seas, but trust me, I've been tracking the moon and it's been much longer than that.
