Using Story Cards
Take the Story Cards from the game box and set them aside. Do not look at these cards until instructed!
During your investigation, whenever you are instructed to take a numbered Story Card, take only that card from the Story Deck. Do not peek at the others. These cards represent specific items, knowledge, or clues.
Each card remains available to you for the rest of the campaign unless you are instructed to return it to the Story Deck.
If you are ever told to take a Story Card you already possess, ignore the instruction.
Some locations will require you to possess specific Story Cards before you can read that location’s entry. If you travel to a location that requires a Story Card and you do not possess that card, in most cases this will result in a Dead-End, and you must advance on the Dead-Ends Track.
In most cases, you may return to the same location once the necessary Story Card is found. However, you will have to advance the Hourglass each time you revisit that location.
At the end of each investigation, store your retained Story Cards inside your Campaign Folder.
