Day 2 is ridiculously short,
if you find Marian at once.
But how do you find her? How do you even know that you're supposed to look for her? I walked around the forest for about twenty screens without running into her. Then when I played again, she turned up on the first forest screen I entered. Is it just random? Is there a particular screen you have to find? Or are there a few specific places she might turn up, and you have to find one of them?
Since this day is all about a walk in the forest, here are a few things you can do to keep yourself occupied:
- Stay on one screen for a few minutes, and something will run by.
- See if you can try to grab that thing.
- If you notice some trees that are uglier than the others, that means you're close to or in a druids' grove. Consult the manual. (The ugliness is apparently an unintentional effect of using a different artist.)
- Try to shoot at the big oak tree. (Save first!)
- If you stand on Watling street, you can look East and West (and sometimes North and South) to get Robin to tell you what's nearby.
- You can let Marian die and still continue the game, but it leads to your death in Day 3.
