Hey, new Warden in the making here. 

I am a littlle confused about how time works in Cairn and in this adventure in particular.

according to the wardens guide it is said that travel between points takes several watches (according the type of trail and weather etc.)

But if I do this here then the PCs would defenitelly miss the opening doors.


How did you handle this? Just ingore traveltime?


Hope this is not too obvious of a question >.<

I guess I found the answer. This probably is what the Cairn2E describes as a forest crawl. It is written that 10-15 pois can be visited by PCs in a single watch.

Hi there - this module was written before the 2e travel procedures were published, which is why it doesn't fully align with them. I would suggest making each trip from one point to another take 1 watch, and don't worry about weather (and if they get lost, they end up at a different point of interest). You can also extend the party's deadline and use the full 2e procedures - the aim is that they should feel some time pressure, but not be at serious risk of missing the opening doors.
