New spells, generators, clarifications and physical copies!

After an amazing response to the physical edition and watching some amazing playthroughs from Lone Adventurer, Geek Gamers and Chaoclypse, I made some significant updates to the game to enhance playability. But rest assured, there are no mechanical changes, just clarified some of portions of the game that were consistently asked about or overlooked.

Change log:

• Increased starting gold from 3d6 x 10 to 4d6 x10 to allow for more items at the outset of a quest.
• Added d66 specific room prompts into the core book for each type of area: Forest, Dungeon, Mines, Castle, Hideout and Cavern. 
• Added clearer instructions that you can restore health after an area not just after a full quest.
• Made it clear that the first two d12 rolls on the item shop are free when generating a character.
• Added learning a new spell to advancement options at a cost of $7,000.
• Clarified how and why to search for clues now found on page 5: 
  • "Don’t forget to search for clues. Any room can be searched for clues once by rolling on your character’s Wisdom attribute. Successful rolls find a clue. Three clues let you learn the boss’ weakness. Clues can be an abstract “clue” or a specific item related to your quest."
• Clarified that skill checks are rolled using a d20.
• Added d66 enemy generator with size, traits, details, attack type and activity tables.
• Added sixteen d6 sensory tables for lighting, smell, material, touch, air, decor, furniture, space, organization, colors, condition, taste, walls, pathways, temperature and size
• Added two new spells. Harper's Melody and Luca's Lantern
• Created backtracking guidance now found on page 12: 
  • "Back tracking through rooms require a room roll at -3. But leaving an area completely resets all rooms and progressing through the area again follows the standard room procedures."
