Warrens Curio answers at a glance
Use this focused table when a Warrens prompt appears. It separates the herb, bandage, Holy Water, and Torch interactions that the data module actually lists from the default outcomes that can cost health, stress, or a useful quirk.
Choose an area, then search by object or the supplies you have left. The four regular regions include shared Curios; Courtyard uses its own object pool.

Object and provision names remain in official English so they match the in-game prompt.
Read the current curio data ↗What to save for the Warrens
Medicinal Herbs are the recurring food-and-safety tool: they improve Dinner Cart, Moonshine Barrel, and Makeshift Dining Table. A Bandage protects the Rack of Blades, while Holy Water makes Pile of Bones a reliable loot interaction. A Torch on Pile of Scrolls is a distinct utility use: it removes one random negative quirk instead of rolling the hand outcomes.
Bone Altar is a different case. The data lists a favorable hand interaction, so consuming a provision is not required. Occult Scrawlings and Sacrificial Stone are the opposite: their available hand outcomes are mixed, so choose based on the expedition rather than treating an old cheat-sheet answer as a guarantee.
