Event Flow
3 steps
An academic is trapped in a hanging cage next to a treasure chest. The academic is muttering about “One-Time-Use Keys” while furiously writing something. Looks like you can unlock the cage or the chest.
Lose Lantern Key. Obtain History Course.
Lose Lantern Key. Procure 2 random Potions. Obtain 2 random Relics.
Repy bows in appreciation as you open the cage. He hands you a thick leather tome. “Those who know not of history are doomed to repeat it. But you seem to know a thing or two about repeats don't you?”
“Not going to free the scholar, Repy? Based on classic philosophy, you would be considered a moral failure. That's right, maybe consider the LIVING PERSON that is locked up next time! It is not as if there is a valuable member of society in a DIRE PREDICAMENT or anything!!” “Look, okay, see how small this cage is!? Why am I complaining? You've already made your unscholarly decision... oh, what's inside there? Some potions and relics? Isn't that just great. Just great. Really great for you...” Repy's eyes follow you with disdain as you walk away.
Strategy Tip
This event requires the Lantern Key relic. History Course is strong if your deck benefits from it. Potions are the fallback. Only appears if you kept the key from The Lantern Key event.
