Event
''One day in the forest you come across a band of thugs standing by the road. As you draw near they move to block the path.''
 * Draw 2 Monster Cards.

''"Hand over half your gold, stranger, for passing through this forest. The White Council demands it!"
 * A) Give them half your gold. > You lose half your gold, and pass without gaining the token.  However the card stays active and you can step back on it to fight instead.
 * B) Refuse.
 * "The White Council doesn't like armed mercenaries wandering through their land," the man says as they close in around you.
 * (After Combat)As you approach one of the fallen men, he says with some effort, "You'll regret this! There will be consequences..." he cuts off as his voice fails him. You notice a robed figure standing in the shadows of the forest. He waves his hand and a magical portal appears. Stepping through he is quickly gone. You look around to find no sign of the fight remains.
 * Acquire card's token.


 * C) Go back the way you came.
 * The armed men watch you turn and leave.
 * Move back one space. Encounter remains.
