The GUI fades from vision and is replaced with?

A rush of sensations from an unfamiliar body

After the GUI faded, familiar senses returned. But their new body came with new sensations that felt very foreign. Magic and mana did not exist on earth. At least not outside of fictional stories. But it was now something very much real. It could be felt in the air. Their body instinctively knew what this sensation was, but their consciousness was built upon their old life. Their mind was unfamiliar with how mana felt. Instinctively to his body it actually felt nice, but being highly unfamiliar was a strange thing to adjust to an extra sense.

Their other senses seemed normal for the most part. Able to balance on two feet and stand just fine. Eyes opened up to take in surroundings and saw a lush forest. Wind rustled the leaves of the trees that surrounded him. The bark on trees was a familiar brown, but there seemed to be something more to the plant. It looked like an ordinary tree. Walking up to feel it and the bark didn't seem odd Though now they now had another sense adding additional input. Trying to put a word to what was sensed they thought that something about the tree felt powerful.

With time they would come to realize what was being sensed was mana density. The tree was old and in a tangible sense more powerful than the random flora scattered about the ground. This sense extended beyond their immediate surroundings to a degree. Their body felt a something like a light pull on it. Mana felt good, and a instinct directed them to go towards a more mana rich area.

Though the sensation was misunderstood. It was simply thought to be a desire to start moving and exploring.

From seemingly no where a voice spoke, " I don't have much time. So shut up and listen." Before any full reaction could be had, the voice angrily reiterated, "I said shut up and listen! Now, be thankful to have a new life as my champion. You need a new name for your new life. I have chosen for you the name Haven. A parting bit if advice. Find a dead forager, adventurer, or just anyone really. And quick. Assume their form and try to blend in assuming their identity. If you stay as you are, you likely won't live long. Good luck~"

What do they do?
