Event Bonus Servants
This event brings us a new limited 5🌟 Ruler, Caren C Hortensia. While I’m not interested in rolling for her, I’m sure others are. My focus will be event CEs (as usual), but I won’t turn my nose up if she does spook me in my rolls.
That happened with Himiko during the Yamatai-koku event last fall. First three rolls of the event (coincidentally, the first morning in the new house) and bam! Three copies, plus a few event CEs.

Event Currency
This event will have four types of currency. It might be best to focus on getting all copies of White Garden for farming the points ladder. Of course, that will depend on everyone’s farming needs. For me, I’m going to focus on the points ladder and worry about the other currencies later.
