You track Ichtaca throughout the cave, echoing her movements closely while remaining hidden. She traverses the cavern with the expertise of a natural explorer, discovering paths you hadn't noticed at first. To your surprise, the dark tunnels ramp upwards, taking you closer to the surface. You hear Ichtaca open and close something metallic up ahead. When you catch up, you find a heavy iron grate above you leading into the basement of a building north of the cave's entrance.
Put the set-aside Town Hall location into play, if it is not already in play. Remember that the Town Hall is "Ichtaca's destination." For the remainder of the game, Black Cave and Town Hall are connected to one another.
One at a time, in player order, each investigator discards the top card of the encounter deck. Each investigator who discards a treachery card must draw that card.
