After a battle ends (whether successfully or not), follow the steps below and then proceed to the Reward Phase.

1. Remove all remaining bonus HP from each adventurer’s mat and any HP exceeding the adventurer’s maximum. Then, place each adventurer’s chip, with its remaining HP, back in the art area of their race sheet. If the party has permanent companion units that can appear in later battles, place each companion’s chip near an adventurer mat, removing all status dice or excess HP from that chip.

2. Each adventurer removes and exhausts any remaining dice from their active slots. Then, they recover all of their drained skill dice.

Note: Dice still in an adventurer’s cooldown track at the end of a battle remain there until the next battle or until they are removed by other means, such as during the End of Day Phase or visiting a town’s inn.

3. Disassemble the battle map.

► Place enemy chips back into their correct draw bags and place cache chips back in the supply.

► Sort the map tiles by shape. If delve tiles were used, shuffle each shape facedown. Then place the tiles back in their area.

►Gather the delve cards, setting aside any cards marked with “SP” or otherwise required by the Delve Feature section at the front of your province’s gazetteer. Then, shuffle the Delve Deck and place it back in its area.

This cleanup procedure only occurs after a battle, not after a peaceful encounter.
