Which Craft?
As you hike through the Arrrboretum, you see that someone has made a bunch of little sculptures out of twigs and tied them to some of the trees. It's a little spooky, in a not-very-spooky way. You hear what sounds like someone crying nearby, so you rush to investigate.
You see a woman kneeling on the ground, talking to some kind of black box with a little window in it. "I'm so, so, sorry you guys," she says, sobbing. "I'm, like, really, incredibly sorry. I mean, on a scale of one to totally sorry, I'm totally sorry."
"Um... can I help you?" you ask, but she ignores you and keeps apologizing to the black box. You walk away and find a nice patch of soil for sapling-planting, right by the bank of a little creek. You shovel dirt to make a hole for the sapling and uncover what looks like a pretty nice map. You pick up the map and -- OW! Papercut!
You drop the map and kick it into the creek. Screw that map, man.

- The adventure title sounds like the word "witchcraft."
- The twig sculptures and the woman babbling to the black box are references to the 1999 horror film The Blair Witch Project, in which one of the characters throws a map into a creek for no discernible reason. Consternation ensues.
