Controlling Regions
Area Control Overview
→→ You must visit a region in order
to control it, including paying
any associated attribute costs.
→→ You immediately gain 2 honor
when taking control of a
region.
→→ You gain 2 honor at the end of
the game for each region you
→→
As long as you control the
region, you gain 2 honor when
another player visits that
region.
→→ If you visit a region controlled
gains 2 honor.
→→ If you visit a region you control,
you gain no honor — you
cannot honor yourself.
→→ You may not gain control of
one region and visit another
region on the same turn (unless
otherwise specified by an effect
or ability).
Gaining Control of a Region
To gain control of a region:
→→ You must visit the region in order to control it.
However, you may take control of a region first,
and visit it after (this could affect honor gains).
→→ If the region is uncontrolled, you may use 1
conviction and place it on the region to denote
your control.
→→ To gain control of a region controlled by another
player, you must use 2 conviction — 1 to knock
them out (return this conviction to your influence)
and the other to denote your control (place this on
the region).
→→ Gaining control of a region is a bonus action.
You may gain control of a region, and then
immediately visit that region, or vice versa.
Losing Control of a Region
If you lose control of a region, nothing happens except
returning your block back to your influence sphere
(not your conviction sphere).

→→ Green, dejected,

The Power Board
Potential
This sphere has the capacity to increase the
number of blocks you can use in the game.
Until potential is unlocked by augmenting your
power, it’s worthless.
Rest or visit a Monastery to augment blocks
from potential to influence.
Augmenting Power
→→ Augmenting your power means moving it
one level up, from potential to influence,
or from influence to conviction.
→→ You may choose to augment 1 power
by resting instead of visiting a region
on your turn.
12
Influence
Influence is the primary resource in the game.
Each player controls all influence (colored
blocks) of one color.
Blocks can be moved from your influence
sphere to the spheres on the board to track
your attributes, to the spheres on your
companions to activate them, to the spheres on
relics to track their charges, or be augmented
to conviction on your power board.
Diluting Power
→→ Diluting your power means moving it
one level down, from conviction down
to influence, or from influence down to
potential.
Conviction
Conviction is your ability to overcome
difficult outcomes through willpower,
confidence and resolve.
Use conviction to gain control of regions
(p.11), prevent a champion from being
killed by a monster (p.18), or to gain an
empowered draw on any stack on the main
board (p.9).
IMPORTANT
Any time blocks are returned to
your power board, they always
go into the center sphere
(influence).
Attributes: Specialized Influence Conversion

Each attribute works like specialized influence. For example: when you study at a library, some of your Conversion is a key part of

This is used to perform new
Inspiration actions and acquire different
common attribute cards.
Converting to Courage
→→ Each of the 2 colors
Courage Wisdom 1 1 1
must be present for a

→→ Heroic attributes never

Setting Up
When setting up a game with the well of wishes, turn all 15 wish tokens
so that the wishing well side is up beside the main board. Then randomly
flip 3 wish tokens over and place them on the well of wishes region tile.
Wish Tokens
When visiting the well of
wishes, you may select 1 of
the 3 available wish tokens
and immediately gain the
attributes or honor.
Then, randomize the selected
token back into the pool of

Building sites allow players

merely reveals the opportunity to
build it. However, building on this
tile replaces your visit action.
Setting Up
At the beginning of the game, select the expansion tiles
you wish to make available and place them face-up next
to the game board.
Then, use the guide (p.34) to remove an equal number of
core tiles from the bag and replace them with an equal
number of building site tiles.

Using Building Sites
When a player draws a building site tile from the bag, it
is placed normally. As a visit action, that player may then
use 1 conviction to choose one of the available expansion
region tiles and build it there. Doing so automatically
grants that player control of that region (and honor).
If that player does not build on the site,
another player may use their map action
(on their turn) to build there. 37

Fighting Ronak
Unlike normal play, you will not move on the board or
visit regions until Ronak has been defeated. Instead,
you will take these 3 actions per turn:
1) Generate Attributes (optional, once per turn)
Each turn, generate attributes by activating any 1
of your companions (or your character). You may
convert attributes at any time as normal. You may not
recover influence from the Myths & Wonders board.
2) Contribute an Attribute (optional, once per turn)
To contribute an attribute to the battle, move 1
attribute from the main board (or conviction from
your power board) onto the Myths & Wonders battle
board into a corresponding sphere of your choice. For
example, you may contribute 1 of your courage from
the main board into the bottom sphere in the courage
ring to gain 2 honor. Only courage can be used in the 3
spheres in the courage ring.
Return 2 influence from
companions to your power board.
Augment 1 potential to influence on
your power board.
Augment 1 influence to conviction on
your power board.
Take a teleportation token.
This can be used only once to
teleport to any unoccupied space.
Pick first when loot is awarded after
the event (only available in 4-player
3) Roll the Dice
Whether or not you contribute to the battle,
you will gain bonus attributes for being in the
fight—and Ronak will counterattack (he will not
counterattack after the final space is filled).
Each turn, your champion will lead your attack:
roll both dice. Gain the attribute on the white
die, and suffer the consequence on the black die.
The Guardian Returns
Once all of the spheres on the
battle board are filled, return all
influence back to it’s original main
board and power board spheres.
Tuuk-Tuuk, Boulder Hulk returns
to deliver the final
blows to Ronak,
sending him
sprawling into the
Gaping Maw.
Flip the tile on the
center of the map
from Ronak to
Tuuk-Tuuk.
Visiting Tuuk-Tuuk
For the duration of the game, you
may visit this tile as you would any
other region. This region cannot
be controlled by players.
When you visit Tuuk-Tuuk, you
may gain 1 of any attribute that
you don’t already have.
Dispersing Loot
