    three steps

    How to strengthen the bond

    1. Match three runes. Each phase gives you three successful swaps. An invalid swap is free. There is no per-phase resource cap: every match and every cascade wave is rewarded in full. ✦ Echo is an empty tile: it makes resources harder to gather and grants no reward.
    2. Play up to two cards. Each card spends courage, mind, or bond and can be used once per phase.
    3. Prepare for the reply. The Shadow’s intent always shows the next exact damage. Shield absorbs it first.

    Chapter II introduces obstacles; an orthogonally adjacent match removes one layer. An attempt is reserved when battle starts, and reloading resumes it.
