hi, when starting a quest the setup says to reveal 1 card from the encounter deck and add it to the staging area. per player. my question is- what if the card i reveal was a treachery card? i.e. cant be added to staging area. do i shuffle and replace until i draw a enemy or location? or do i do what the treachery card says instead. thanks.

you do what the card says

Treachery cards have an effect on the game and are then discarded.. sometimes they stay on the board, as is the case with a condition you attach to one of your heroes.
