Ooh, I want to play this one. (I'm quite a fan of Towers at the edge of reality.) Love the lie/truth dynamic, and of course anything that lets me use a deck of cards.
I hope you enjoy it! I also like Towers at the edge of reality and was writing them in, like, middle school. XD
Literally the title came from the working title of a story that got retitled to something else and then the editor hated my submissions title [1] so it got published as "The Knight of Chains, the Deuce of Stars."
[1] It's fine! I am notoriously TERRIBLE at book/story titles, so this happens pretty frequently. XD
