A chill breeze blows around you.

You may Sneak this encounter.

In a small clearing by a turn in the path stands a crumbling gravestone. A pale mist swirls about it. As you approach it rises and twists into the looming shape of a figure. Test Courage. If successful you may remain on the tile. If not lose 1 Endurance and flee back to the tile from which you have come.

The spectre is now visibly, if somewhat transparently, that of an ancient king with a long, withered beard and deep eye sockets. He raises a bony finger to his bald head and gestures to the empty space above.

If you have a crown in your knapsack you may place it on the tombstone. The ghost gestures thanks and vanishes, along with the crown.

Otherwise leave the ghost miniature on this tile, you will have to encounter it every time you pass.
