Newbie here with questions

Hey!

I am new the Wolfquest AE and I have a few questions. I'm trying out new maps so I'm learning as I go.

I'm just starting with Lost River -AE and was curious why there is a question mark on this side map?

I'm also curious of how to play. I mean i know how to play the game, but how do yall usually play. What stories do you create for your pack. I was reading some posts and gathering ideas on stories to play through. I did a test run with a pack to get the idea of the game, but I really want to get down and play. So, I was hoping to compile a few ideas.

Also, any advice and tips/tricks are welcome. Im excited to get started forrealsies with my Toaster.
