Masked Revelers
Agenda 1L 4
Promising to be a night of intrigue and wonder, the gala is expected to be filled with secrets and whispers that are as much a part of the entertainment as the drinks and music.
Each Lantern Club enemy cannot be dealt damage.
Doom cannot be removed from this agenda by card effects.
Forced - When a single-sided Guest asset would leave play: It becomes spellbound instead (flip it facedown, lose control of it, and heal all damage and horror from it).
↶ Flip Side
A crash resounds from somewhere deeper in the manor, followed by a scream. Declan Pearce emerges to calm the crowd in the ballroom, but you can't help but notice the masked attendants have positioned themselves in front of each of the manor's many exits.
Shuffle each set-aside Monster enemy, both copies of the Vicious Ambush treachery, and the encounter discard pile into the encounter deck.

A rank stench pervades the once-stately manor. As more and more nightmarish creatures overtake wounded or dazed guests, you dash out from a hiding place to make a beeline for the exit.

↶ Flip Side
You take a deep breath as you stagger out into the cold night air. Snow falls thickly on the once-pristine lawn, now stained red with blood. The manor is dead silent behind you. The Jewel of Sarnath pulses with an unearthly light in your palm, and for a moment you feel a balmy breeze, the scent of another place both familiar and dreamlike. Was the gem worth all this devastation?
