Your first duty is simple: give the uninvited reader a reason to turn back. A place has been marked for your first guardian.
Opening the register…
The keeper’s field notes
- Choose a guardian, then an empty floor tile beside the path. Guardians attack automatically.
- Select a placed guardian to upgrade or sell it. Surviving towers are repaired after each wave.
- Every wave ends with a boss. Keep invaders from reaching the Grimoire.

Preparing your chamber…
YOUR FIRST APPOINTMENT
