Then you lay down all visible helper cards which are available to all and all can confer on their use. After that, you have two actions – prepare travel or discover landscape – and may use helper cards and can than Travel, by using movement cards on display – either as a color card for travels of the companions or  as an action card – as well as helper cards.
