SETUP
1. Separate the Spirits into 3 shuffled, face-down decks based on their card back / type.
2. Give each player 1 Spirit card from each deck.
Events: The Events from this expansion require the use of the Spirit cards. Do not use these events if you are not playing with the Spirit cards.
When playing with this expansion in a Solo game, give the Rival 1 VP gem from each VP pool at the beginning of the game.
Each player has 3 Spirit cards. Spirit cards grant powerful, one-time benefits when played.
Spirit cards can only be played by a player during their turn. They come in three different types which are related to the phase that they are allowed to be played during.
Morning Spirits can be played during a player’s Composition Phase.
Daytime Spirits can be played during a player’s Singing Phase.
Night Spirits can be played during a player’s Downtime Phase.
After playing a Spirit, the player gains all benefits indicated on the card, then places the card face-up to the left of their player board to indicate that it has been played.
Unplayed Spirit cards grant no additional benefits at the end of the game.
