Closing locations and Escaping Villains

[SethSkinman]

I had a few questions regarding when a villain escapes. When a villain escapes and ends up in a new location and you encounter and defeat a henchman do you search the deck to see if the villain is also in this deck? And if so do you banish all cards except the villain?

My second question was if we encountered and defeated the villain and players at other locations temporarily close all his possible escape routes does that mean he is defeated and the adventure won?

Sorry if these are newb questions but I just hate making judgement calls when I am not 100%. I have only played the first adventure so far so I have a feeling I will have a lot more questions. Thanks for your help.

1: Yes.

If you succeed at meeting the When Closing requirement, search through the location deck, take out the villain if it is there, and banish the rest of the cards. If you find the villain, it becomes the entirety of the location deck, and the location is not closed—but at least you know where the villain is!

2. Yes. If you defeat the villain and all the other locations are permanently closed or temporarily closed, you win.

Check to See Whether the Villain Escapes. If any locations are not closed, the villain escapes...
