== 🧾 How bosses work ==
* Each boss is tied to a **biome progression step**.
* You typically locate a **Vegvisir** stone to reveal the boss altar on the map.
* Bosses are summoned by offering specific items at their altar.
* Defeating a boss unlocks:
* A **Forsaken Power**
* New crafting or progression unlocks (often via dropped items)
* You can activate one Forsaken Power at a time at the Sacrificial Stones.
