You thank the goat farmer for his kind offer. Still, your focus remains singular: to get the talisman and get it to Iirkë, so you can claim your reward. He shakes his head, but wishes you well, and you continue.
After a while, you find you’re close to the summit, probably only an hour away, and yet your shirt is soaked with sweat, and your legs ache.
What do you do?
Push through! Keep going!
Set up a makeshift camp here and keep going in the morning.
Look for a shortcut.
