A fairly sudden ending. Feels like there’s a lot more story to tell, and it just wasn’t in the budget. We’re really not going to see fox Jace? Not going to get any character development for Zoraline? Why didn’t Glarb have the presence of mind to grab the egg before fleeing, making the party have to track him down? What’s the scoop on Gev’s tail? And how come there are only 16 unique cards spoiled so far and we still didn’t see most of those characters or locations?

Watsonian: Glarb isn’t much of a fighter but he is smart. Once Cruelclaw and the mercenaries were dealt with he knew he’d be at worse odds versus the heroes. As for Zoraline, she just wasn’t usually awake with others and so didn’t interact with them much (a shame, yes).

Doylian: The set was seen as risky by Hasbro execs, as all this started design years ago so the money was limited and things were told to be kept short in case it didn’t go over well.

@Evu @silverchase I haven’t read them yet, but they did announce that Jace wasn’t actually going to Bloomburrow, and that art was from a special "imagine if Planeswalker ‘x’ went to Bloomburrow"series.

Besides, tomorrow is the big announcement stream. I’m sure they’ll have more stories and a ton more cards spoiled in the next few weeks

If there’s more fiction to come then I retract some of my complaining. I was assuming this was all there would be.
