[Cards] Arista, Wand of the Spire (Patreon)

The wizards sat in their twisting tower, rising above the lake. There they surveyed the currents: both of the lake and of the people in the city below. Amid the seagull cries were the whinnies of pegasi and clean lake wind. You could see, hear, and think clearly from above. When you're high up, the problems of everyday minutia seem simple.

The queen had told them they were foolish to think this way of course, and that, no, you couldn't feed or house a city with a wave of your wand. That real problems exist amidst the nonmagical, too. She was a good leader, to be sure, but she was wrong about one thing.

There's always a wand to solve your problems.
