Just now, Shade had proposed gambling with special cards, and naturally, the two brothers agreed. Shade put forward Circus Tragedy · Headless Clown, which he had won from a circus magician at a country tavern in Randall River Valley. It was a Stars 3 card, with the special effect: After the round ends, activate this effect, remove this card, and add 5 to your total points. This effect must be activated.
Meanwhile, Mr. Eric Follen, who wore a monocle over his right eye, and Mr. Charles Follen, who wore one over his left, respectively put forward Shakadi Story · Wine of Love and Shakadi Story · Mistress of the Mist.
Shakadi Story · Wine of Love, Flower 4: If, when the round ends, there are no cards with matching numbers among all players' hands, its point value may be adjusted between 4 and 5.
Shakadi Story · Mistress of the Mist, Flower 3: If, when the round ends, the sum of all players' card numbers is less than or equal to (number of players) × 17, add 1 to your total points.
The Shakadi Story Collection was an ancient anthology formed in southern Kasonlik during the early Sixth Epoch. It contained fairy tales, fables, and stories of many other genres, making it a very old storybook. Shade had once seen the Stars 1 Shakadi Story Collection · Frozen Love in Stone Osenfott's possession. The activation condition of that card had also concerned the state of all players' hands after a round ended.
After defeating Stone Osenfott, Shade had considered searching for his Rhodes Cards deck. As far as Shade knew, it contained Stars 1 Shakadi Story Collection · Frozen Love and Flower 5 Kasonlik Horror Story · Undead Maria. Unfortunately, that deck had not been on Osenfott at the time.
