Part Two: Crossing the threshold
Now that our hero has gone through the tedious act of accepting the call to adventure, he needs some help crossing the threshold. The "supernatural aid" so to speak. The threshold separates the known and the unknown knowledge along the heroes journey. An example in the Star wars movies, Luke Skywalker knew that the Jedi existed during the clone wars and that was about it.
As Luke travels throughout his journey, he finds a couple different Jedi, learning more about what the order was before they were lost. Crossing the threshold of the unknown, he starts his transformation as part of the Jedi world- ready to influence all that he might come across.
Crossing the threshold is an important gap; without the threshold being crossed, the hero cannot enter into the unknown and solve the problem in which the plot revolves around. But sure to have an adequate and descript crossing of the threshold, lest the hero be seen as under powered or inadequate.
