Boudica takes the walking stick and heads out, hoping to get Stefan and Moryana to safety.

Anton joins the others, he really wanted to search for other relics, magical scrolls, potions, etc but he also did not want to have some ill omen befall him alone and never be seen from again.

Moryana kneels beside the injured fox once you make it out of the witches’ hut. The poor creature is lying curled in the dirt, sides rising and falling in uneven breaths. It doesn’t flinch when she gently titles its head and lets the drops from the potion fall onto its tongue.
A moment later, the swelling in its eyes begins to recede, the inflamed skin calms, and even the color and luster to its fur returns, until it seems health and lively again. The fox rises to its feet, and after a hesitant look it bolts away, pausing just once at the edge of the trees to look back at you before vanishing into the woods.
One by one, Moryana feeds the potion to the rest of the injured animals. The snakes slither away quickly through the grass, the badger following in their trail. Even the raven manages to flap its whole wings again, and with some initial effort, lifts itself into the air and flies away.

You start your journey back to Threshold. It is almost a full day march, and you’re already exhausted. There was a short path leading to the witches’ camp, but a few hours later it fades into the forest floor and you are forced to navigate using the sun. Once it drops below the tree line, you are left wrapped in shadows, whatever little moonlight swallowed by the tangled canopy. Finding your path in the darkness is uncertain, even with the light of the torches. What do you do?
OOC:
You can set up camp for the night, or try to press through. If you choose to travel, I’ll need a survival/wilderness or other appropriate skill check to see if you can navigate the forest at night without getting lost
