Overview[edit]
This event's gimmick is Tarot Cards. In each stage, four special skills can be used once while on the map:
- Ace of Swords: Grant 2 actions points to the selected echelon and enhance their strength in their next battle. However, they will be immobilized after the battle.
- Ace of Cups: Gain a shield at the start of battle for 1 round.
- Ace of Pentacles: Transport the selected echelon to an unoccupied node within a 2-node distance.
- Ace of Wands: Apply EMP to the specified enemy within a 1-node distance from the current node, reducing their stats and immobilizing them for 1 turn.

If You Can Hear Me...
I'm sorry, Commander.
I still haven't been able to determine your whereabouts. AR-18 has been leading the Griffin Dolls in search of you, Mr. Kryuger and Mr. Havier have both been trying to help... I have also pulled every string I could within Statesec, but all to no avail.
This has never happened before - you are in grave danger, yet nobody is by your side to offer you even the slightest bit of help.
This may sound arrogant, but no one understands how it feels to be a "lone wolf" better than I do - I'm not just speaking from my time with Sangvis Ferri, but also from some secret experience that I cannot tell you about.
Do you remember that night of reunion in Berlin when we drank together and had a heart-to-heart? You asked me many questions, but I could answer with little more than "no comment" most of the time.
Looking back now, I wish I had told you more about how to survive in desperate situations.
Why don't we make a promise, Commander? Next time we meet, I'll answer all your questions truthfully; and you must tell me everything you've experienced during this time.
I'll be waiting for you with the best whiskey.
Don't stand me up.

Questionable Divination Results
Commander, I must say this in advance: I've always considered "divination" to be a superstitious game without any scientific basis, played by vulnerable humans when they feel powerless. However, since your disappearance, for some reason, "Tarot divination" has become popular among the T-Dolls. Everyone is using the 22 Major Arcana cards to speculate about your whereabouts, well-being, and even your future...
Although I put no stock in it, I don't want to spoil everyone's intentions. So, at their urging, I will report to you the most widely circulated divination results on behalf of the T-Dolls, for your amusement.
Past: [The Chariot] Upright. Represents that the Commander once struggled to maintain balance in the past, but was ultimately unstoppable. (Obviously, this is correct)
Present: [The World] Reversed. Represents that the Commander is trapped in a cage where there's no way out, but not in danger. (This is the best-case scenario we can deduce currently)
Future: [The Wheel of Fortune] Upright. Represents that the Commander can only be carried forward by an irresistible force called "fate" - it could be peril, or it could be opportunity. (The conclusion is too ambiguous, please forgive me for disagreeing)
Although many are obsessed with these results, I must say that a game is just a game.
No matter where or when you are, whether fortune favors you or not, we will find you. This determination will not change due to any circumstance or ridiculous prophecy...
That's all. Take care, Commander.
16 November 2024 (SOP-II)
You must receive my email!!!
I miss you, Commander. Although you've only been away for a few days, and even though we've gone days without seeing each other before, it feels very different this time.
No one knows where you've gone. RO doesn't know, 15 doesn't know, and even 16, who's become very mysterious since returning, doesn't know. If only M4 were here, I could ask her what she thinks. Now I can only ask other T-Dolls. Some say you were abducted by aliens from the planet of cats, others say you were taken by taken an evil dark legion, and some even say you were carried off by some mysterious giant beast...
It's making me worry about you even more! I'd rather believe you were taken to the sky, so when I look up, I could see you. Are you looking at me too?
Oh, RO asked me to remember to tell you that the base is currently operating normally. We've devoted more manpower to searching for your whereabouts, and we will definitely find you!
Also... 16 left again. Although she said we'd meet again soon, I still feel a bit reluctant to let her go... It feels like everyone is busy with their own mission except for me. 16 left me a videotape of a live recording of the opera 'Faust' from long, long ago. Apparently it's from before the Frankfurt Opera House was bombed.
But I don't really understand it. Why make a deal with the devil, and what is a soul...? Never mind, I won't think about it anymore. Suddenly feeling very sleepy... I'm going to rest for a while, Commander. I hope I'll see you when I wake up.
