Once you’ve recovered all of the Relics and defeated the Relic Thief Mage you’ll head back to the Empire to claim your reward.With the upcoming meta shifts, assassins are likely to be far more prevalent in the midlane than they have been throughout the recent patches. She only has one guard with her so the battle shouldn’t be too tough. You’ll need to avoid these while getting close to her to do damage. Relic Thief Mage: This Mage has a ranged attack she’s also able to cast area of effect wards on the ground. If you want the Gold Token for this quest take the Cursed Relic from her and then engage her in battle. Or you can let her keep the Relic which might make it easier to defeat her depending on the curse. She offers to give you the Relic and the curse that goes with it. Once you reach the top you’ll find the Mage. Hopefully you won’t take too much damage along the way. To get to the top of the tower you’ll need to complete the Wheel Gambit a few times. If you’ve finished exploring the map make your way to the Mage’s Tower for the final battle. This is where the final Relic is located. Once you have the three Relics the ‘Mage’s Tower’ will be placed on the map. The next time you face them you’ll have more time to defeat them. If you fail and they get away they’ll move to another part of the map. It’s best to make sure you have a good weapon available before taking them on. If you can do it successfully you’ll gain the third Relic. Thieves: The first time you encounter the Thieves you’ll only have 45 seconds to defeat them all. You can try to take the Relic by force but it shouldn’t be too difficult to attain 15 Fame by completing encounters around the map. You can take the Relic by claiming you’re the hero but you’ll need 15 Fame to do so. Village: The village is the Tent token in the bottom right corner of the map.

If you want to be sure of being able to buy the Relic make sure you have 40 Gold on hand before going to meet him. You can try to negotiate for a better price or try to take it by force. He’s prepared to sell it to you if you give him 40 Gold. Merchant: The wandering salesman has one of the Relics. You also don’t want to get the Relics too early as each Relic will bring with it a curse which could potentially make the quest harder to win. Two of the Relics will wander around the map and the third is a tent that remains in the bottom right corner. You don’t want to head straight for them as you’ll need to have some Gold, Fame and a good weapon before you can take the Relics. From here you’ll proceed to the next map and the main adventure. The last encounter on this small map is the ‘Training Ground’ where you’re given the Cutthroat’s Blades to help you deal with Thieves. You move along to the ‘Royal Palace’ where you’re given 10 Gold to help you with the journey. You arrive in the market square and hear the town crier calling out for adventurers for the Empire. These are the locations of the known Relics. Special Rules: There will be 3 tokens on the map.

You’ll need to take plenty of food to make it through without starving. This is a large map with 28 encounter cards. Objective: Find 4 Relics and deliver them back to the Empire.
