	===Overview===		==Overview==

	You ~~create and satisfy 8 objectives that you choose~~, ~~which are presented~~ across 8 rounds.		You play a traveler, wandering across the ever-changing continent of Alula. For eight rounds, you and your opponent(s) take turns playing cards left to right. This represents your journey across the continent.

	~~Your regions will~~ score ~~BACKWARDS (that~~ is, right to left)~~, not in the order~~ you ~~played them!~~		Each card can score points, '''but''' only if they satisfy the requirements of the card. And this calculation is done from '''right to left''' (going backwards) as you return from your journey.

			==Beginning==

	~~===Turn===~~		Each player receives 3 Region cards for their hand. Then a number of cards (1 + # of players) are placed on the table. Players will choose from this bank to refill their hand at the end of the turn.

	~~1. First, everyone picks a card to play as their next region card. The card goes AFTER the previous card they played (if any).~~		==Card Anatomy==

	~~2. Each player checks the top left number~~ (~~Exploration Duration~~) ~~of the card they just played. If it~~'~~s greater than the previous card~~'~~s number~~, ~~the player draws 1 Sanctuary card plus one per Clue~~ (~~map~~) ~~that they will choose between for~~ the ~~next phase~~.		There are four biomes a card can belong to: '''{{Text\|Desert\|c=mediumslateblue}}''' (blue), '''{{Text\|Forest\|c=firebrick}}''' (red), '''{{Text\|River\|c=darkseagreen}}''' (green), and '''{{Text\|City\|c=gold}}''' (yellow). The color and pattern on the floor represent which biome it is.

	~~3. Based on the top left number their played card, players in order (from lowest to highest) pick a~~ Region ~~card from the supply to replenish their hand.~~		====Region====

	~~4. Then they choose one of their Sanctuary cards to play (if they drew any earlier)~~.		[[File:faraway_card28.gif]]

			The upper left corner shows the card's number, along with whether it is explored at daytime (a sun) or nighttime (a moon). A Clue (a map) may be next to this number.

	~~===Game End===~~		The upper right will have zero or more icons--either an uddu stone [[File:faraway_udduStone.gif\|12px]] (blue rock), an okiko chimera head [[File:faraway_okikoHead.gif\|12px]] (horned animal), or a goldlog thistle [[File:faraway_thistle.gif\|12px]] (plant). These are used to fulfill requirements for points.

	~~The game ends at~~ the ~~end~~ of the ~~8th round~~.		On the lower right is the points that the card will score. Some of them have prerequisites posted above. In the below example, there has to be two uddu stones and a thistle ahead of this card and/or in your Sanctuaries to score 12 points.

	~~To score, keep your Sanctuaries face up, but flip all your regions face down for scoring~~.		[[File:faraway_card49.gif]]

	Reveal the rightmost Region card and score it if it meets the requirements in the middle right by adding the points at the lower right to your total. (Note this may be a fixed number or depend on other symbols in your cards' top right corner.)		====Sanctuaries====

	~~(At this point~~, ~~only your Sanctuaries~~ and ~~one other card~~ are ~~face up)~~.		Sanctuaries have similar markings, but simpler and are played differently. The upper part has bonuses that can be used during scoring. The lower part may have additional fame points.

	~~Then reveal~~ the next Region to the left and score it, and so forth until you score all 8 regions right to left. So, your cards that were placed earlier will still be face down and thus will NOT help score cards placed later in the game, so plan accordingly.		A player gets a Sanctuary if they play a card with a higher number than the last card they played.

	~~Once all regions~~ have ~~been scored~~ and are ~~now~~ face up, ~~score~~ the Sanctuaries, and the player with the highest score wins! (Tiebreaker is lowest total Exploration Duration.)		==Turn==

			====Explore a Region====

			All players play a card.

			====Find a Sanctuary====

			If the card's number is greater than the previous card's number, the player draws as many Sanctuary cards as they have Clue (map) icons plus one into their hand. These will be used in the next phase.

			====End of Exploration====

			The player with the lowest number on the card played is the first to choose a card from the bank. Then the player with the next lowest number goes and so on. The remaining card in the supply is discarded.

			Any player who found a Sanctuary chooses one and discards the rest.

			==End Game/Scoring==

			The game ends on the 8th round. Your Region cards are turned face down, then turned face up, one by one, '''starting with the last one'''. For each card, the fame points are calculated using all face-up Regions and all your Sanctuaries.

			For example, if a requirement needs 2 uddu stones, and only 1 is face up, the requirement is not fulfilled, even though you may have a card with a second uddu stone in your journey, but it is face down. If it occurred before the face up card, it does not count.

			Any points from Sanctuaries are then counted.

			Once all players have scored their Regions and Sanctuaries the player with the highest score wins! Tiebreaker is the player with the lowest total Exploration Duration.
