It's been a little bit since I last played EA, but if I recall, there was mention that in x days the druids were going to seal off the grove. This made me super hesitant to ever long rest in the game because I didn't want that to happen. But I was nowhere near strong enough to tackle the goblins at that point. I also think I'm missing camping interactions because I'm so loathe to long rest.

Do I need to pay attention to a time limit and not long rest so that the ritual doesn't complete?

Thx!
