READ THE FIRST ENTRY YOU MEET THE CONDITIONS FOR:

If you are on Buried Survey Team:

Kal works to help you with single-minded focus, but you can see him wince with every motion. When he spots you watching, he gives you a weak grin.

"What? I can do this! ... Ok, ok, I see that look in your eye. And I know you can handle this on your own. I'll wait over in the safety of that passage."

Kal heads off, but can't stop himself from shifting one more piece of rubble on his way out.

Add 3  to a feature, then attach Kal to BURIED SURVEY TEAM facedown and check off his corresponding bubble.

Helping Hand is attached:

You run through the passageways, quickly choosing a different route from Kal as you strive to beat him to the arteries. Several times you find yourself moving along the bottom of large arched caverns, only to catch sight of Kal traversing some scaffolding or suspended walkway near the ceiling.

Now, however, you realize you haven’t seen or heard Kal for over an hour. You’re guessing he’s pulled ahead of you. You doubt you’ll be able to win the race to the arteries, but maybe you can meet up with him later and challenge him to a rematch.

Discard Kal Iver. Return HELPING HAND to the collection. The lead Ranger draws a path card.

Helping Hand is not attached:

As you head out again, Kal takes a last pull from your canteen and hands it back to you. “So long,” he says. “Stay wary down here.”

He heads down a side passageway and across a narrow walkway bridge. In a moment you’ve lost sight of him, but you’re sure you’ll run into Kal again down here in the maze of passageways.

Discard Kal Iver. The lead Ranger draws a path card.
