A very chancy challenge

You slipped away to spend a lazy day beside the river

Your back ached, and you'd spent enough time in others' company. You just wanted to be alone for a while.

You will gain 3 Memories of Home, and on a success you will gain a Cunning Plan.

With a friend, you stole a flagon of cider...

...and crept away to find out which of you could hold your drink better.

Challenge a friend playing Below to a Boldness contest. You will both gain a Cunning Plan, and the winner will also gain a Reckless Folly.

A Secret Cider-Drinking Contest

You remember a fine day during harvest-time. [Actor] had a plan - to steal a flagon of cider, and find out once and for all which of you could best hold your drink...

[Participants] distracted the field-workers while you filched the cider. You met under the old bridge, where you took turns swigging from the flagon until [Participants] was vigorously sick.

You argued with your father

Despite the rich harvest he wanted to salt and pickle and store everything. But the work had been hard, and your family deserved some indulgence.

Spend 3 Memories of Home to gain Inspiration.

The river

A very chancy challenge

There'd be hell to pay later, but just then you didn't care.

You sat in the shade of a leaning sycamore and watched fish doze on the mud of the river-bed. The river had become mixed blessing. Its fish supplemented your barley and meat at the table, and the folk who lived along it used round coracles to travel swiftly up and down.

But to the Sea-Kings, a river was an invitation - an artery allowing their low-bottomed ships a sure route to their enemy's heart.

Your wariness. Often tested in challenges of stealth and finesse.

Subtlety 2 failed in a challenge! Try again and you may have better luck...

Your memories sustain you. You can spend them in Camp or on Above cards.

You've gained 3 x Memories of Home (new total 44).

Serpent-ships have been sighted off the coast...

A fat, white cave-frog clings to the wall. The troll-wife sings to it, scratching it under the chin with a jagged fingernail clogged with dried, rusty blood.

'Hoary wanderers, hungry horde.' She croons.

'Hollowing hall-makers, mountain-lords.'
