The materials for making the Wheel of Fortune card were not easy to find.

To save time, Iver directly got his three companions to help him look for them.

Although the requirements were not as strict as those for the Moon card, it was still somewhat troublesome—but fortunately, it was merely troublesome.

They needed four owl feathers, three griffin feathers, the shackles and key of the Wisdom Prisoner, bandages or gauze used by someone who had suffered a fatal injury but ultimately survived, and a small amount of sapphire powder.

The first two items were easy enough to find.

Owls were rare, but they were not extraordinary creatures, after all. In the middle of the night, Iver had commissioned Liz the griffin to catch one. As for griffin feathers, they were close at hand.

The main difficulty lay in the last two materials.

The Wheel of Fortune card symbolized change, destiny, and irresistible forces... But the Thoth Tarot Version of the Wheel of Fortune, after its transformation, also carried the meaning of "twisting fate through one's own will."

In other words, one could not simply lie down and let events unfold. One had to turn the Wheel of Fortune oneself, demonstrate one's will, and change one's fate—and doing so required sufficient wisdom, as well as thorough study and reading. By turning the lower part of the Wheel of Fortune, one could set the higher levels in motion and ultimately twist the entire wheel of fate.

It belonged to the Tarot Card of the Path of Wisdom.

The essence of the third material was "the prison broken by a bound wise man"; the fourth was "proof of a person pursued by death twisting fate through powerful will."

Neither of these things was easy to find.

It was not merely a matter
