I would start with area A, then lead to a central "gather tokens" box, and spoke all the areas from B-H from it as well as a "gather 3 tokens" box and a "gather 6 tokens" box and a "gather 8 tokens" box. From "gather 8 tokens" you'd lead to your area I. The spoked wheel suggests the ability to move to and from an area while still being a part of the "gather tokens" part of the story.
