The Labyrinth

Beyond the door the passage splinters into looping, snakelike coils that divide, double back, and cross in a tangled maze around the barrow's heart.

Spells are scratched into the walls. As the maze ensnares your body, its sorceries will try to ensnare your spirit...

1. Accumulate Secrets, Gear, then Treasure to pass each of the Labyrinth's challenges.

2. As you explore the labyrinth you may become Entangled in its spells. The higher your Entangled quality, the cheaper it is to progress through the labyrinth. But if Entangled reaches 10, you'll become enchanted and have to break free.

Your Thoughts

What thoughts weigh on you as you travel?

As your character learns new abilities, new branches may appear on this card. Spend Memories of Home to use them.

Below Deck

Explore the dungeon

Remember your home

The touch of sunlight. The sigh of the wind. The heathers bowing on the heath.

Gain a Memory of Home.

Think about your travels

Perhaps you can learn from them.

Gain Experience.

Sing a Scarrow-Song

The ways of the world above will not help you here.

Trade Memories of Home for Experience

            You need 5 x Memories of Home  (you have 14)

            5

Into the grave I go, my dear...

            5
            Unlocked with 5 x Memories of Home  - you have 9

The song is a string of nonsense words from a dozen lives chanted to a grave-dirge - like beads threaded on catgut. You leave your memories of home behind, and learn the lessons in the dark.

If you are Inspired, you can trade Experience for Memories of Home, instead.

Return to town to spend this on new abilities for your character.

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 Labyrinth

Beyond the door the passage splinters into looping, snakelike coils that divide, double back, and cross in a tangled maze around the barrow's heart.

Spells are scratched into the walls. As the maze ensnares your body, its sorceries will try to ensnare your spirit...

1. Accumulate Secrets, Gear, then Treasure to pass each of the Labyrinth's challenges.

2. As you explore the labyrinth you may become Entangled in its spells. The higher your Entangled quality, the cheaper it is to progress through the labyrinth. But if Entangled reaches 10, you'll become enchanted and have to break free.

The Dark Closes In

Sometimes there is enough light to see by: shafts to the world above, or luminous fungus, or glowing beetles. But here it is dark as sleep.

You have drawn a Condition card! You must choose a response in order to continue. You are always at risk of drawing this card while you have the Dark condition.

Below Deck

Explore the dungeon

Stumble on through the dark

Perhaps you'll find light further on.

This will remove the Dark card from your hand for now, but it may return. You will lose Spirit or become Lost.

Muster your courage. Press on.

There is more light ahead, you're certain.

Spend Inspiration to discard this card.
