There are two types of working scenes, depending on whether or not you're working to try and earn Wealth or if you're trying to make an item.

Earning Wealth

Preparation

A working character begins with a Preparation score equal to their Stag Totem.

The GM then declares a T8 skill test (such as Know, Move, Hunt, Discern, Plan or another).

If you pass, add one to your Preparation, and one more for each extra success.

Threshold

The Threshold for the extended test is equal to 7 + your current Wealth score. If more than one hero is working together, add the number of heroes to the Threshold as well.

Making Tests

You may now make skill tests in order to reach the Threshold. The scene ends when you no longer have any Prep, or you have met or exceeded the Threshold.

If you ran out of Prep before making the Threshold, the work is not complete but must be set aside. Record the current Count and Threshold, you may resume work in the next working scene with a new Preparations pool.

If you made the Threshold, you increase your Wealth by 1. If you exceeded your Threshold, you increase your Wealth by 2. If you made the Threshold exactly with a test, you may choose to continue to try and surpass the Threshold as long as you have points in the Preparations pool.
