Success
The leagues of your hand
Your first hand is poor, […] Your next hand is better […] shadows behind the Manager […] his bespoke nightmares bear down on you.
[See table]
The Manager […] loses the hand […] he loses the next, and the next […] a new nightmare blossoms beyond […]Description summary:
You play carefully. Eventually, the Manager summoned his nightmares - yours to be exact. They are the personification of your insecurities and worries. You deploy your dream-battalion and crush them. Without his trump card, your better skill wins hand after hand. He has more nightmares to throw at you, of course.

| 4 | […] You order your army of chess-pieces forward, and they spring forth, sword and mace and shield in hand. The Bloody-Handed Queen suffers no competitors. In the Garden of Nightmares she wreaks a slaughter on the nightmare-kings, laughing as they fall. |
