Your quick thinking saves you from the enemy’s arrows. Blinded by the sudden darkness, the Eldenorans are unable to hit their target and you pass under the stone bridge unscathed. When you emerge on the far side, your boat is carried swiftly away by the river’s powerful current. The Eldenorans do not pursue you and within the hour you arrive at a point where the river meanders into a hilly, timbered region. It is difficult to navigate this section of the river in the dark and so you decide to stop and rest until daybreak. You beach your boat on the left bank and settle down to sleep under the bough of an oak tree.

Before you go to sleep, unless you possess the Discipline of Grand Huntmastery, you must eat a Meal or lose 3 ENDURANCE points.
