The story he tells is about what happened right after the Tragedy. He is one of those who died of "natural causes" after all those who sinned died. He managed to leave his mark here so he could pass on important information for those who came after them. He is glad to have finally met someone and hopes they will pass on the message he has.
He explains that those who had made peace with their deaths have turned into spirits that try to help new Power Holders the best they can:
• In Autumn the spirits form shelters from the rains and storm if they manage to spot travelers in need of them. • In Winter you can always find running, drinkable water among ice, thanks to the spirits. • In Spring the Tree of Wisdom is actually the spirits giving them advice (even if unfortunately the tree itself is mischievous). • In Summer the flames may suddenly change color and become harmless if someone is in danger of getting burned.
There aren't all that many spirits doing these things, but it's possible to encounter them. However, he warns that those who weren't at peace when they died may also still be around: but he does not have solid proof of that so he can just advice them to be careful and keep his warning in mind.
As a last thing he says that all the other Segments also have locations where someone has left their magical circle, but the old man unfortunately doesn't know where they are. He just knows they have their own stories to tell and they may be a key to unlocking important information about the World.
