The Stones

Common wisdom said they were the remains of a castle of the giants. To you, they looked like teeth - crooked and grey - biting at the sky from their high moor.

Above Deck

Restore Spirit by remembering your life above

You tried to count the stones

A very chancy challenge

Every time, you reached a different number.

You will recover some Spirit (more on a success) and gain a Memory of Home.

You know something of the speech of giants.

An almost impossible challenge

Perhaps, with what you now know of the Giant-Tongue, you could translate them...

Spend two Memories of Home for a chance to gain Forgotten Lore. The more you know of the Giant-Tongue, the more you can gain. If you fail, you will learn a little more of the Giant-Tongue.

            Unlocked when Learning the Giant-Tongue is:

A handful of lumbering phrases

A heavy word or two

You understand its bones, if not its stony skin. Who else could say the same?

You manage clumsy sentences. It sounds like the earth grinding its teeth

As the sun slid behind the eastern woods, you chanted solemn, sonorous songs and poured mead on the stones.

Afterwards, the men drank and told stories through the night. The mead was strong, and in the heavy hours before the dawn, when voices were scratchy and the mood pensive, your head began to nod. Your father shook you quickly back to your senses, and you shared a smile.

You didn't tell him about the dreams that had crept towards you. A dark sky. A black sea. White sails between.

A tough 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.

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.

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

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

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.

The Gallows

Three spars and a rope. The end of a bad road. Justice. Punishment. Revenge.

The worst of all crimes

A tough challenge

Justice could be hard to come by in Gallowmoor. There was no king, and no king's law. An alderman's rulings reached as far as his sword. The althing carried more weight, until an offender had enough powerful friends to split the vote. Instead, families took matters into their own hands, sparking blood-feuds that carved the land like a jigsaw.

It seemed to you then that of all the world's crimes, 'getting caught' carried the harshest sentence.

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

You succeeded in a Subtlety challenge!

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

The Hall

The roof was high and steep, supported by crossed beams of pine. Light blazed in its windows. Wooden columns supported the eaves, and on each was carved a different beast: an eager hound, a rearing bull, a soaring eagle, a leaping salmon, a proud gryphon, a flame-wrapped dragon, a coiled snake, and on the very last a tiny mouse, hidden at the bottom.
