Message: <blockquote data-quote="pukunui" data-source="post: 8009212" data-attributes="member: 54629">I'm finding the cartographer's "Tale of Safe Travel" ability a little confusing. I have questions.It lets you perform a 45-minute ritual that enables you and your party to travel "to another location you could normally reach within one day". As per the default rules, you can travel for 8 hours in a day. At a normal pace, you can go 24 miles in normal terrain. In the jungles of Chult, you can move one hex (10 miles). So I presume this means that the party can condense 8 hours of travel into 45 minutes.Turn the page and it says "if your tale is told with reverence and precision," you and your pals enter the Border Ethereal. What if it isn't told with reverence and precision? Does the ritual just fail?Lastly, it says that the destination must be somewhere you've been before or somewhere for which you've got an accurate route and map. It also says that whenever you end / interrupt the ritual, you arrive safely at your destination. However, it also says you can end the ritual early if you want to engage with something that the DM is describing. Those two sentences together make it sound like if you end the ritual early to engage with something along the way, you still end up at your ultimate destination safely. Is that the sense other people are getting? Or would the encounter along the way become the new ultimate destination and you'd have to restart the ritual from there to get to your original destination?Thoughts?</blockquote>
