Exploring the Moon
Type: Act
Encounter Set: Dark Side of the Moon
Clue Threshold: 1
Objective – Only investigators at the Temple of the Moon Lizard may spend the requisite number of clues, as a group, to advance.
While the majority of this temple is dedicated to an idol the moon-dwelling creatures refer to as the “Moon Lizard,” you also find several references to some kind of lake of primordial black ooze not far beneath the surface, that binds together the core of the Moon. “These texts imply that the whole of the Moon’s surface is connected by this ‘core’ across multiple dimensions. Perhaps we can use it to cross over to the Moon’s other side,” Randolph suggests.
“Or to the afterlife,” Virgil adds.
“Yes, one or the other,” Randolph replies nonchalantly. “It is still our only option.”
Put the set-aside Caverns Beneath the Moon (Dark Side) and The Black Core locations into play.
If any investigator’s alarm level is 5 or higher, spawn the set-aside Moon Lizard at The Black Core. Otherwise, shuffle Moon Lizard into the encounter deck, along with the encounter discard pile.

Now that you are reunited, it is time to get off this rock. Randolph informs you that the light side of the Moon should be safe from the reach of the moon-beasts, who dwell only on this side. However, it is much too far for you to walk on foot. You’ll have to find another way to escape.

In the Belly of the Moon-Beast

Clue Threshold: 3
Objective – Only investigators at the City of the Moon-Beasts may spend the requisite number of clues, as a group, to advance.
After hours of weaving around leprous stone towers and searching high and low, you finally spot a group of shackled captives being led single file from the docks to who knows where. Luckily, they are guarded by only two of the foul Corsairs. You create a distraction loud enough to separate the pair, then sneak by in order to free the captives.
Choose an investigator at City of the Moon-Beasts to take control of the set-aside Virgil Gray (Truly Inspired) story asset.
Check Campaign Log: If Randolph was captured, that card’s owner puts the set-aside Randolph Carter (Expert Dreamer) story asset into their hand.
