Towards the end of Drive-In Liminal
At this point, there are some things we can confirm that have happened. Somehow the last Jaunt ended in a tie, and that Lovers was returned because of it. Before this, I briefly spoke on my belief that a single Arcana winning this game is not the best outcome, but I was unsure of the possibility of encouraging ties, and bringing back those who’ve been eliminated.
Now that both of those things have been confirmed, I think it’s time to open the discussion again.
My thoughts are this: That the Arcana are all important in their own ways, and for a truly balanced world, they should all be reflected equally. There are obstacles to this in that some of them have been killed, but Emperor confirmed that completing the game will bring the dead back. There are also obstacles in the fact that the Arcana themselves don’t seem aware or willing to consider the possibility of joint wins. Of course, to succeed, we would need to find a way to alter the rules, and gain the cooperation of at least one of the Arcana.
That last point I think should be the first step, but before I proceed, I wanted to hold a discussion. There may be things I’ve missed, or don’t have the experience to properly understand, and coming together to share ideas will make us stronger and more cohesive for it.

It’s good that you’re sharing these things. Thank you. I will take time to think of what you’re saying thoroughly before considering implementing the plan.
I do have some questions for you, and would like to know if the questions would make you consider adjusting some or all of your position.
The first is: How can we be sure the Arcana haven’t made themselves necessary through playing this game? Related, do you know when your world, and the specific time you were taken from, exists in relation to the current game? We’ve seen that the Arcana can take us to many different times in the worlds we visit. Hundreds of years passed in the world that Questing Country and Gehenna shared, but a few months at most for Travelers.
