What place does Milo arrive at first after entering the tollbooth?

• A. The Lands Beyond
• B. Expectations
• C. Dictionopolis
• D. Doldrums

Answer: (B)

The first concept this question taps is how Milo’s journey unfolds in the Land Beyond, using place names that signal ideas. When Milo passes through the tollbooth, he doesn’t just land in a single scene; the first stop he encounters within the Lands Beyond is a town called Expectations. This stopping point is meaningful: it frames his journey around what he thinks will happen and what he hopes to find, highlighting how expectations shape how we approach adventures and what we learn as we go.

After this initial stop, he continues on to other places like Dictionopolis (the city of words) and later encounters the Doldrums, but the very first destination after entering the tollbooth is Expectations.
