When you draw one of these from the Encounter deck, you’ll draw another card. If it is another Boon, you keep drawing. If the last card drawn is an Encounter, you’ll gain extra rewards after battle. If the card is not an Encounter(a difficulty increase for instance), you’ll shuffle the Boons back into the Encounter deck.
