Back to collectionAn Obelisk, an Oath, and New Arrivals
The new season had brought some players back, but the studio still had to conserve staff time. The official account shared another early concept image, this time of an obelisk, and said collectors should swear allegiance before it. The obelisk gave the card game's world another scene to imagine, while the arrivals made the community busier and noisier than it had been days earlier.

The new season had brought some players back, but the studio still had to conserve staff time. The community had just seen a concept image for the first card game and wanted to know what else belonged in its world.
The official account shared another early concept image, this time of an obelisk, and said collectors should swear allegiance before it. Some saw theatrical worldbuilding; others asked how an oath would figure in the game. Meanwhile, two more peer studios had gone under that week, and a group of players with nowhere familiar to go arrived in Discord. The Night Watchman began by showing them where the existing discussions were.
The obelisk gave the card game's world another scene to imagine, while the arrivals made the community busier and noisier than it had been days earlier. The Night Watchman planned to organize questions about the setting and gameplay separately so newcomers could find their way in. The studio had yet to explain whether the oath was atmosphere alone or would affect play.
