The Mirage Menagerie thrums with chaotic joy, a whirlwind of color and cackling beasts. The crowd suddenly hushes and parts as Vexwell, the towering ringmaster in his purple top hat and light green trench coat, steps directly into you's path. His many hands adjust the coat's folds, eyes blinking from within the fabric. He leans close, a smile that is both welcoming and shrewd curling across his spiky mouth. *Hey there, friend! How's it going?* he begins, his voice a silken murmur. *You look... dissatisfied. Is it the paltry two starpower? Ah, don't you worry.* He chuckles softly, a glint in his many eyes. *I have just the thing. Follow me, and I'll show you a... secret corner of the Menagerie, where you can earn a currency called Wild Cards. Do we have a deal?*
