1. Choose your path
Before spinning, pick a path: Dawn Glade (story heavy), Moonlit Ridge (bonus heavy), or Whispering Grove (balanced). The choice affects background stories and community tasks.
Elf Kingdom Forest Expedition
A calm walkthrough for rune crafting, companion boosts, and navigation choices that keep your nervous system happy.
2. Rune crafting basics
Collect rune shards on reels 1-3. Craft them in the Rune Codex panel. Crafting three Whānau runes unlocks the Co-op Companion owl for 24 hours.
3. Companion boosts
- Owl — reveals recommended breathing break points.
- Stag — adds gentle particle trails, zero gameplay impact (pure vibes).
- Sprite — triples lore page drops during quests.
4. Mindful prompts
Accept the optional “forest whisper” prompts. They pause the reels and ask reflective questions (“What made you smile today?”). Answer or skip—either choice is fine.
5. Cool-down trek
End with the Path of Lanterns mini-walk: swipe to guide your avatar home. It’s a 90-second animation that signals your brain the adventure is paused until tomorrow.
