into a Toad.
The Minstrel already has 3 Objects: Armour, an Axe and the Amulet (Magic
Object). He can freely claim the Gold Counters and the Maiden. Since he can
only carry 4 Objects (5:3), he must choose carefully what to take. The Water
Bottle could be useful as he is about to lose 1 Life to the Desert. However, since
he started with, and still has no spells but has a sufficient Craft to allow him
some, he takes the Wand first and immediately draws a Spell Card from the
Spell stock pile. It is a Healing Spell. A bit of good luck as now he can cast it on
his next Turn to restore the Life he will lose to the Desert. He decides to ditch
the Amulet by placing it face up in the Desert Space and to also take the
Talisman. He now has his four Objects: Armour, Axe, Wand and a Talisman.

Turn now ends.
