When Revealed: End the quest phase without resolving the quest.
Shadow: If this attack destroys a character, remove all tokens from the current quest.
You are playing Nightmare mode.
Forced: At the end of the refresh phase, choose an unclaimed Clue card not attached to a Mordor enemy and attach it to a Mordor enemy, if able. (If it was guarded, detach the encounter guarding it first. The newly attached Mordor enemy is now guarding it.)
If at any point there are four or more Clue cards attached to Mordor enemies, the players lose the game.
"Through Mirkwood and back again it led them, though they never caught him."
–Gandalf, The Fellowship of the Ring

2x False Lead
2x Misty Mountain Goblins
2x Banks of the Anduin
3x Gladden Fields
3x Eastern Crows
2x Treacherous Fog

Then, shuffle the encounter cards in this Nightmare Deck into the remainder of the standard The Hunt for Gollum encounter deck.
Finally, flip this setup card over and place it next to the quest deck. Its effect remains active throughout the game, which is now ready to begin.
