The nastiest things they saw were the cobwebs; dark dense cobwebs, with threads extradionairly thick, often stretched from tree to tree, or tangled in the lower branches on either side of them. There were none stretched across the path, but whether because some magic kept it clear, or for what other reasons they could not guess. - The Hobbit

It is strange that this very card where everybody first started has no comments here. On to correcting this injustice!

 

Passage Through Mirkwood is an excellent opener for the LCG, presenting you with a slight challenge and introducing all the core mechanics of the game while setting a nice disturbing atmosphere and the sense of adventure. The quest itself is a walk on the park... ahm, Mirkwood, and if you ever build a deck that stumbles against this one you should revise it. From scratch.
