Cedar Latch turns the loft into a living signal board. Swap gems into cascading lines, then catch glowing telegraphs in a short parry window to break enemy posture and execute. Each Ante opens numbered berths on a node rail. Skirmishes teach pattern reading; Boss nodes force you to learn attack phases. Switch Jobs mid-fight so your matches exploit color weaknesses. Fail a parry and an ally Peg can fall for the rest of the run. Defeat still feeds Relic Echo — permanent tools that reshape the next climb. Progress is session-based: Continue a berth, draft relics, grow your Job codex, and chase deeper Antes. Grain Shelf Desk tunes light and amber accents. Privacy opens in an in-app browser.
