As the presence draws near, doubt and fear surround you like a vast shadow. You must find daylight, your must escape from the Black Pit...

While Search for an Exit is the active quest card, only flip it to side 2B at the beginning of the staging step.

Forced: At the end of the round, shuffle the discard pile into the encounter deck and discard the top 5 cards. Resolve the "when revealed" effects of each copy of A Foe Beyond discarded by this effect.

No more than 1 progress can be placed on this stage each round.

If the players defeat this stage, they win the game.

Players may bypass this quest card at the end of the combat phase.
