The river winds through the jungle, giving you an easy path to follow. Eventually, it leads you to a spot where the path splits off into three. The river continues on the right.\n\nWhere do you go?\n\n[[Left|RightLC]]\n[[Center|RightDeadEndBack1]]\n[[Right|RightLR]]

You sit down on a rock and take a quick break before continuing.\nYou're starting to get tired, but you get the feeling you're getting really close to something important.\n\nFinally, you get back up and keep walking.\n\nWhere do you go?\n\n[[Center|CenterLCR2]]\n[[Right|CenterDeadEndStart1]]

You climb over a large log. Suddenly, the ground gives out under you and you fall into the raging river.\n\nYou struggle to stay afloat as the river carries you downstream. Finally, one of the locals spots you and helps you out, taking you back to the outpost to recover.\n\n[[==>|OutpostStart]]

She hands you a small piece of flat stone. The edges are super cracked and you get the feeling it was once part of a much bigger stone.\n\nCarved into it is the following:\n<p style="color:red">aves, a n</p>\n\nYou can't make heads or tails of it, but maybe the rest of your group can help.\n\n"Keep it," Blue says. "And tell me what you find, okay?"\n\nYou thank Blue for her help and leave her shack.\n\nNow what?\n\n[[Back to the village|Locals]]\n[[Time to go into that jungle|JunglePaths]]\n\n[[...|BlueTalk]]

After visiting the shopkeeper, you decide to head over to the next red X marked on the map.\nAs you approach your destination, you see a large sign:\n"Welcome to the Outpost"\n[[Continue ==>|OutpostStart]]\n

The path splits off in two opposite directions.\nWhere to now?\n\n[[Left|LeftDeadEndBack1]]\n[[Right|LeftCR2]]

You climb over logs and through thick bushes, carefully avoiding small, rocky cliffs and dangerous-looking paths. Finally, you come across a path that looks promising!\n\nYou run down this path, only to discover it leads straight into a huge, stone wall. No matter how much you try, there's just no way to climb it. Finally, you give up and go [[back|JunglePaths]]

The toymaker held the Cursed Idol in their paws, inspecting it closely.\n\nThey were beginning to think this thing was far more powerful than anyone had ever thought...\n\n[[==>|OutpostStart]]

You suddenly realize you've run out of water. You try to keep pushing forward, but soon you collapse. Fortunately, a fellow Nabi helps you out and gives you some of their water. After that, though, you have to be carried back to the outpost to take a break.\n\n[[==>|OutpostStart]]

Another smaller path splits off from the main one. Where do you think you should go?\n\n[[Center|LeftDeadEndStart2]]\n[[Right|LeftClue2]]\n

You stop to take a rest and drink some water. Pushing through the thick shrubbery is thirsty work.\n\nWhen you get back up and keep walking, you come across a part of the path that splits off from the main path. Where do you go?\n\n[[Center|LeftDeadEndStart2]]\n[[Right|LeftCR3]]

Your rations are getting low, but you're too far in to give up now. The path splits into three.\n\nThis is important: where do you go?\n\n[[Left|CenterClue2]]\n[[Center|CenterDeadEndStart2]]\n[[Right|CenterDeadEndStart2]]

Wait, you've definitely passed that tree before!\n\nYou realize you've been walking in circles and groan. Time to retrace your steps and try again.\n\n[[Back|CenterLR]]

"Ah, hello, hello, can I interest you in some fresh, delicious fruits? They're so sweet and juicy, perfect for a hot day like this one!"\n\nYou shake your head, asking instead if they've heard of any strange happenings in the jungle, or felt any strong surges of magic.\n\nShe thinks about this for a while. "Hm, now that you mention it, my magic has been feeling odd for a while. There are rumors about some old ruins in this jungle. Maybe that has something to do with it?"\n\nYou ask her how to get there.\n\nShe shrugs. "Nobody's been very deep in there. It's very dangerous and easy to get lost in. Sorry bud, I wish I could help more."\n\n[[Back|Locals]]\n\n[[...|FruitTalk]]

A wisp floats gently in the air. You decide to follow it.\n\nIt leads you to something sticking out of the ground. You pick it up and see that it's a piece of flat stone.\n\nOn it is engraved the following:\n<p style="color:red">ken fates...</p>\n\n[[Time to show the others|OutpostStart]]\n

You see something glowing not too far away. As you approach, you notice it's a small cloud of wisps. You try to catch them, but they float away, revealing that they were gathered around a broken piece of flat stone.\n\nOn it is engraved the following:\n<p style="color:red">Poor los</p>\n\n[[Time to go show the others|OutpostStart]]

Deep in the leaves, a nest awaits...\nPoor lost souls with broken fates...\n\nLocked away and there they wait...\nFor a key to break the gate...\n\nKEY\n\n<>,<><><><>\n<><><><>\n\nLocked away and there they wait...\nFor a key to break the gate...\n\nKEY

The outpost is a semi-busy little village, with streets lined with shops advertising fresh fruits and handmade crafts. The locals trade and barter for these goods, casting curious glances in your direction. They must not be used to outsiders, and the group that arrived in search of the nest is a large one.\n\nThe main street eventually turns into a pebbly dirt path, leading straight into the jungle.\n\nWhat do you do?\n\n[[Talk to the locals|Locals]]\n[[Head straight into the jungle|JunglePaths]]\n\n

Three paths appear in front of you.\n\nThe one on the left is covered in thick vines and shrubs.\n\nThe center path is much clearer. It's a large dirt path leading deep into the jungle.\n\nThe right path runs parallel to a raging river.\n\nWhich path do you take?\n[[Left|LeftPath]]\n[[Center|CenterPath]]\n[[Right|RightPath]]

You come across a spot where the river turns to the left. On your right, there's a bridge that crosses the river. Where should you go?\n\n[[Left|RightLCR]]\n[[Right|RightCR]]\n

The river continues to your left. There's another bridge here that leads to a path that crosses the river then continues forward. Across the river, you see yet another path that continues to the right.\n\nWhere do you go?\n\n[[Left|RightLC2]]\n[[Center|RightDeadEndStart1]]\n[[Right|RightClue2]]

You look in your bag for some rations, only to realize you've run out. Fortunately, one of your fellow Nabi shares some of theirs, but now that means you both have to go back and get more.\n\n[[==>|OutpostStart]]

The Outpost

"My name's Blue, by the way," she says, as she leads you to a broken down hut on the edge of the village. "There's been weird things going on here for days, but nobody believes me! And now, I've been seeing these weird little glowing lights all over the place!"\n\nThe wisps, you say.\n\nShe looks at you strangely. "Wisps? Do you know what they are?"\n\nSort of, you admit. You're figuring some stuff out still.\n\nYou ask her if she has anything that would be useful for finding weird magic stuff in the jungle.\n\n"Yes!" she says. "Or at least I think I do. Here, I found this. Maybe you can figure out what it means."\n\n[[==>|FirstClue]]

The path continues forward. You pant as the hot, humid air seems to cover you like a blanket.\n\nA smaller, thinner path continues to your left. Where to now?\n\n[[Left|RightClue1]]\n[[Center|RightDeadEndBack1]]

The path gets slowly more perilous as you walk along. It leads you to a spot where the path splits off in two directions, while the main path continues forward. Where do you go?\n\n[[Left|CenterDeadEndBack1]]\n[[Center|CenterLR]]\n[[Right|CenterClue1]]

You thank the baker for his time and follow the Nabi away from the stand.\n\nYou call out for her to wait.\n\nShe whirls around, glaring at you. "What? I was telling the truth! He has something against me, I swear!"\n\nYou hold your paws up and tell her that's not why you're here, then you ask her if she's seen anything weird around.\n\nHer expression immediately changes, and she smiles. "Oh, I definitely have! Follow me!"\n\n[[Follow her|FollowBlue]]

You stumble through a particular rough spot and almost fall over a small cliff. You carefully slide down the soft dirt to continue your path.\n\nSuddenly, you trip over something and fall flat on your face. You glare back at what tripped you to discover a small flat stone.\n\nOn it is engraved the following:\n<p style="color:red">t souls wi</p>\n\n[[Back|OutpostStart]]

You keep going, hopeful that you'll find something soon.\nThe path continues forward, with a smaller one going to the right.\n\n[[Center|RightDeadEndStart1]]\n[[Right|RightDeadEndBack1]]

You come across a large, crumbling statue of what appears to have once been an Aurusalkar. There's something at the base...\n\nYou pick up a broken piece of flat stone.\n\nOn it is engraved the following:\n<p style="color:red">est awa</p>\n\n[[Time to show the others|OutpostStart]]

"You look like someone who would enjoy some freshly-baked bread! Can I interest you in some?"\n\nAs delicious as the bread looks, you shake your head and instead ask him if he's seen anything strange around.\n\nHe thinks for a while, but is quickly interrupted by a young Nabi who pushes past you and starts to yell at him.\n\n"You sold me stale bread! This is the third time, and I will not stand for it!"\n\nThe baker rolls his eyes at her. "I did not! No refunds, and if you don't stop complaining about my baked goods, you'll be banned from my stand!"\n\nShe huffs and begins to walk away.\n\n[[Stay with the Baker|BakerCont]]\n[[Follow her|BlueIntro]]

You drink some water, trying to battle the heat. Eventually, you reach a spot where there's nothing but a large boulder. On top of the boulder is a small piece of flat, broken stone.\n\nOn the stone is engraved the following:\n<p style="color:red">its...</p>\n\n[[Maybe you should tell the others|OutpostStart]]\n

The fruit seller sighs as she begins to pack up for the night. She glanced curiously as the travelers continued on their way, silently wishing them luck.\n\n[[Back|OutpostStart]]

The river eventually leads into a large tunnel. It's far too dangerous to go through.\n\nDejectedly, you turn to go back the way you came. Suddenly, you spot something on the ground.\n\nIt's a piece of flat, broken stone.\nOn it the following is engraved:\n<p style="color:red">th bro</p>\n\n[[You get the feeling you should go show your fellow travelers|OutpostStart]]

The path leads to a tiny creek that runs through the trees. There's something in the creek, which you pick up.\n\nIt's a piece of flat, broken stone.\nOn it is engraved the following:\n<p style="color:red">he le</p>\n\n[[Time to go back and show the others|OutpostStart]]

Your stomach growls, reminding you that your rations are getting pretty low. Still you push onward. You're so close, you can feel it...\n\n[[Left|RightDeadEndStart2]]\n[[Center|RightClue3]]

You are starting to get exhausted, but you keep going.\nFinally, you reach a fork in the road.\n\n[[Left|CenterDeadEndStart1]]\n[[Right|CenterDeadEndBack2]]

You wiggle through shrubs and cut away at thick vines until you reach a small clearing. Where to now?\n[[Left|LeftContLC]]\n[[Center|LeftDeadEndStart1]]\n[[Right|LeftContCR]]

The path keeps getting more and more dangerous as you keep walking. Finally, you decide it would be safer to give up and retrace your steps.\n\n[[Center|CenterLCR]]

You decide to sit down and take a quick rest. You close your eyes for a second. When you open them again, you realize you're no longer in the jungle. Somehow, you've woken up back in the Outpost.\n\n[[==>|OutpostStart]]

You are starting to get really tired already, but you push onward. There's a path that goes straight, and another that goes to the left. Where do you go?\n\n[[Center|LeftDeadEndStart1]]\n[[Left|LeftLR]]

Blue stared intently as she watched the travelers take the clue and leave. She was desperately curious as to what they would find.\n\n[[==>|OutpostStart]]

You cross the bridge and continue forward. Suddenly, you see a wisp. You decide to follow it. After a while, you notice that it has led you back to the outpost.\n\n[[==>|OutpostStart]]

You struggle through the vines, fighting off mosquitoes the size of your paw.\n\nYou come across two more paths. Where to now?\n\n[[Center|LeftDeadEndBack1]]\n[[Right|LeftClue1]]

The Nabi behind this booth looks bored out of their mind. They perk up when you approach.\n\n"Hello, stranger! Would you like some souvenirs to remember your time here?"\n\nYou decline, and they droop again. "Yeah, no one does," they mumble.\n\nYou ask them if they've seen anything weird going on recently.\n\n"Yeah, actually," they say. They show you a small chest. "I found this thing on my booth, and nobody knows where it came from. Hey, how about a trade? I could use something cool and shiny to attract attention to my booth. If you find me something that would work, I'll give you this chest! Sound good?"\n\nYou agree. Time to keep an eye out for something "cool and shiny".\n\n[[Give them the Totally Not Cursed Golden Idol|ToymakerClue]]\n[[Back|Locals]]\n\n[[...|ToyTalk]]

You see a small wisp floating a few feet in front of you. Maybe it'll lead you where you need to go!\n\nYou run towards it, following closely as it leads you to... right back where you first found it. It led you in a giant circle! What a waste of time!\n\n[[==>|LeftContCR]]

The baker shakes his head as he watched the travelers go by.\n\n'Some things should just stay hidden,' he thought to himself.\n\n[[==>|OutpostStart]]

There's several locals here you can choose from.\n\n"Fresh fruit! Get your fresh fruit here!" calls out one vendor.\n\n"Baked goods, right out of the oven!" yells another.\n\n"Trinkets, knick-knacks, toys for your children!" says yet another.\n\nNow who to talk to...\n\n[[Talk to the Fruit Seller|FruitSeller]]\n[[Talk to the Baker|Baker]]\n[[Talk to the Toymaker|Toymaker]]\n\n[[Head to the Jungle|JunglePaths]]

This path seems to be the most popular. Your fellow adventurers chat with the locals as they continue on this path. Eventually, the path splits into two smaller ones.\n\nWhere to now?\n\n[[Left|CenterLCR]]\n[[Right|CenterCR]]

This path leads you straight into a giant patch of thick shrubbery. You decide it's just not worth it and retrace your steps.\n\n[[==>|RightPath]]

The baker sighs. "Ignore her, she's always complaining about something or the other. I'm sorry, I haven't really seen anything strange."\n\n[[Back|Locals]]\n\n[[...|BakerTalk]]

You present the Golden Idol to the Nabi and ask them if it would work.\n\n"Ah, this is perfect! Oh, it looks very cursed. This will definitely attract the attention I need!"\n\nThey take the Idol and give you the chest.\n\nYou open it to reveal a small, broken piece of flat stone.\n\nOn it is engraved the following:\n<p style="color:red">Deep in t</p>\n\nMaybe the others will know what this means.\n\n[[Back|Locals]]\n
