Description

The Emperor watches over his land, using his elemental magic to ensure the safety and prosperity of his subjects. With the aid of his most loyal companion, a Dragon, he has kept his borders secure for years. In return, the spirit of respect and gratitude from his subjects lends him power and helps him focus on improving his magical skills. One day, however, the Emperor senses an ancient Evil bubbling up from beneath a long-forgotten ruin far to the north. The Evil begins to advance toward the Palace, its insatiable appetite for destruction drawing it to the center of the Emperor’s power. As it approaches, it blights the land with Curses, sapping the Emperor’s resources.

In this asymmetric cooperative card game for two players, one player is the Dragon, who collects resources from a hex map of the empire, while the second player is the Emperor, who uses the gathered resources to power spells and create Magic Items to combat the advancing enemy. The object of the game is to acquire the three Magic Items before Evil reaches the Palace or Curses cover too much of the land.
