Failure: ?
- Traps. No problem. The Knights just need to distract the Wyrms and lure them into a pincer attack. (roll v. ?)

Success: expand Cosmetics +1 S?, access Stage 3a

Failure: ?
Stage 3a: The Quest for CogSpring[]

Success: expand Strategy +1 S?, expand Luck +1, conclude Adventure

Failure: ?
- Character Study. What manner of approach seems like it would be most effective on a boy like Luca? (roll v. ≤10)
