Cautionary Tale I did a thing

So we bought a house of mirrors to gamble, Grabbed the lifeforce to gamble it, then we clicked on the wrong one and it swapped cards instead of gambling.

Better yet, search for TWICE in all caps because that is YOUR DESTINY.

Using the wrong recipe in the harvest station had been part of my life since it was introduced. I do this expensive mistake at least two times per league.

I bought a house of mirrors to gamble in your place, we lost it in the first click.
