Success
A game of spider-like patience
You construct your web strand by strand. So does he. Each move thrills across the board like a signal. You know that the game is won twenty moves before he finally concedes.
Watchful is increasing…
Wounds is dropping… (-2 CP)
The Boatman's Opponent is increasing… (+5 CP)

Failure
Age and night and patience
It's like wrestling with time. You know three moves in that you're going to lose. After that, it's just a question of how grandly you go. You do make him work for his victory.
