Slippery Bridge

While crossing a rickety wooden bridge, there is a sudden torrent of rain. Massive gusts of wind buffet you, threatening to end your journey.
I hate bridges.

Each time you Hold On: Holding on costs HP, 3 the first time and 1 more each time after, with no cap. It also rolls a new card for Overcome, a different one each time while your Deck has others. A re-rolled card can be a Basic one. The plate glows red once its cost would kill you.

Which option to take

  • Hold On up to three times (12 HP total) hunting for a Strike, a Defend or a curse, then Overcome.
  • A free removal is worth 75 Gold or more; do not stop on a card you would keep.

How it plays

  • Overcome: removes the card named in the option.
  • Hold On: costs HP and rerolls that card, 3 HP the first time, then 4, 5, 6 and so on, one more per hold.
  • The first offer skips Basic cards (Strikes and Defends).
  • Every reroll excludes cards you already declined and any card of the same kind as the last offer, then picks at random from removable cards.
  • If that leaves nothing, any removable card can come up.
  • There is no cap on holding on, though the story text stops changing after the seventh.
