This is a **Forest** exploration event. It offers the chance to get  Fabric,  Foul Smelling Potion,  Luck Charm,  Magic Pouch and  Worms Poultice. The participating survivor risks being afflicted with the disease  Nausea temporarily, and suffering  Depression,  Injuries,  Sickness and the loss of some of their Courage.

## Inspect

Small opened bags are scattered among the rest of an encampment. The fire pit is cold. Looks like this place was deserted days ago, if not weeks.

## Check the Bags x1

Relevant Skills: **Courage**, **Crafting**

Most of the bags are empty. And those which aren't...well, they are full of rot and animal filth...

* **Search the Filth (Courage)**

Failure
You take a deep breath, steel your mind and put your hand into one bag. The feeling on your skin is... ugh. You feel bile building in your throat. You feel small hard elements in the midst of the gooey substance. Is it what you think it is? Ugh... you can't handle that any more. You remove your hand. It's covered in rot and vomit and shit. Everywhere. Under your nails... You succumb to your urge to empty your stomach.

+  Sickness

The participating survivor gains the  Nausea disease temporarily.
Success
You take a deep breath, steel your mind and put your hand into one bag. The feeling on your skin is... ugh. You feel bile building in your throat. You swallow it and keep searching the bags. Your resolve pays off as you feel something of interest. It's a small package wrapped in leather.

+  Foul Smelling Potion,  Magic Pouch and  Worms Poultice.

* **Take the Empty Bags. (Crafting)**

Failure
Sewing isn't your forte but you're stubborn. You try and try... and... try... The only thing you achieve is to prick your fingers. GRRR... It's pissing you off! You throw the bloody bags away. To Hel with them!

+  Injury and  Depression
Success
With a bit of work, you unstitch some bags and retrieve the fabric. You look at your work... not bad considering the state of the fabric.

+  Fabric
## Check the Fire Pit x1

Relevant Skills: **Wisdom**, **Courage**, **Strength**

You search in the ashes. You don't know why or how, but you feel drawn to the pit. You remove burnt wood and stones until you fint IT. Hidden in the ashes, a necklace made of strange golden teeth. It looks unburned. That's... Odd.

* **Inspect the Necklace. (Wisdom)**

Failure
Hmm... This necklace... Unburned by the flames... It should have burned! Has to be the work of magic. Is it a blessing? A curse?

* **Leave it here.**

Do you REALLY want to risk being cursed? Not really, no. You decide it's best if you just leave the necklace where you found it. Better safe than sorry..
- 5 Courage
* **Take it.**

You take the necklace. It's warm to the touch. Warm...? WARM?! It shouldn't be!
* **It's a curse! (Strength )**

Failure
Must be cursed! AND YOU TOUCHED IT! Maybe you're cursed now? HELL PLEASE NO! You kick the necklace until the thread breaks, releasing the golden teeth. THERE IT GOES! YOU:1, CURSE:0. Or is it? One tooth was hard and sharp enough to pierce the leather of your shoe and hurt your foot.

+  Injury and  Depression

You're pondering the possibility of this trinket being a blessing from "the whitest of the gods", guardian of the Bifröst. You decide it is and proudly fasten the necklace around your neck. It should protect you against Loki's tricks.
