Moving from one location to another while delayed has no effect on your delayed status. So if you were still delayed (i.e. moved to LiTaS on the same turn this Mythos was drawn), you would still be delayed when you got back to Arkham.

that's the part I was asking about. Does that seem bizare to anyone but me? I mean, Interpreting it that way basically means the mythos card has a wasted headline. What difference does it make if I am losing a turn being LiTS or losing a turn chilling on the Unvisited Isle or something?

Because I think even if you lose your turn, you still have to deal with monsters that are on your space during movement. Monsters can't get to you in LiTaS.

And if a clue appears on you during Mythos, you can take it immediately. None will appear in LiTaS.

Not to mention, by the time you're ready to come back to town, you can come back wherever's most convenient for you.

Yeah well, no clues are going to be spawning on an open gate either, now are they? =) As far as fighting monsters... Erm.. no, I don't think so. If you're losing your turn, you're not losing all of your turn except for the monster fighty part.

Why should it be bizarre? You are fighting eternal beings from other dimensions 80 years in the past.....

I am saying that if you get kicked out of LiTaS because of this mythos, you remain delayed in Arkham but you no longer lose your turn . Therefore you would still have to deal with monsters in phase 2 and you would still haev an encounter. it is not the same as chilling in LiTaS which has no monsters and no encounters.
