Extra

What is more frightening than the fall of life is the death of the soul
This card wasn't broken for those foolish enough to throw themselves into flames, you explain to the Sultan: the books contain immortal souls, and here you will burn them.



Seeing the flames raging, the Sultan gives a satisfied smile.

Conditions:

Result:

The real conquest is the conquest of culture and memory
You tell the Sultan, the books of the ten nations he once annihilated are all preserved here, they remember their languages, their cultures, their stories, their ideals... Now, for your Lord, you will cleanse them from this earth.



This is the real conquest. The Sultan nods, an exclaimation mark towards the agreement that, henceforth, this shall become routine after any city broken.

Conditions:

Result:

The Most Thorough Extravagance
Why is this book-burning fire so wondrous, fragrant beyond burning costly spices, more splendid than the fire offered by an alchemist? The Sultan asks, and you reply: "It is a fire ignited using the future as fuel, thus it's extremely extravagance." – the Sultan feels this elegant act indeed deserves an Extravagance Card.

Conditions:

Result:

He chanted a spell
Voluntarily, Asal, the owner of The Angler Bookstore, begged to be burned with these books – and the Sultan graciously granted his request.



As flames engulfed him, he opened the book in his hand, chanted a curse towards you and the Sultan... using his life and soul to curse you to be sucked into this book after death, into a collection of terrifying, despairing, bizarre tales... to experience eternal fright and torment.



The Sultan sneered at this, as the monarch's demeanor and that powerful Signet Ring made ordinary curses ineffective against him. What about you? God, is there a more frightening game than the Sultan's Game? This is truly the most boring curse.

Conditions:

Result:

You don't expect Lumera to be so determined
You have gently comforted her, even pleaded – but she had decided to die with the books, having gained the Sultan's permission and attention.

Feigning madness has faked it into reality. And now, you've lost control of this tragedy by your own doing... Flames parted you, countless pages shattered, ashes flew – and she disappeared, into the swirling blaze with just a blink, as if she never came to this absurd world.

Conditions:

Result:

An Unforeseen Sacrifice
Wasn't it the girl you once ignored? She sat atop a mountain of mixed firewood and books, heedless of the soldiers' shouts, the malicious cacophony of the onlookers, ravenously reading the books in her hands – there were countless free books piled up for her to read right now.

Until the flames rose, in the unbearable fire and smoke, there always seemed to be a silhouette, calmly reading.

In the end, everything turned to ashes, leaving only the shadow and a sigh before it dissipated.

Conditions:

Result:

Some Leave
The gazes once fixed upon you are now completely severed by smoke and ash. Now the badge you hold is merely ordinary metal, devoid of other meaning.
