These cards – Luke's "In the Footsteps of Silk," Artem's "Serenade of the Soul," Vyn's "Reverberation Through Time," and Marius' "Void of Creation" – incorporate iconic motifs from Silk Road history, such as flying apsaras and the unique pipa playing technique depicted in Dunhuang murals. The event even extends the narrative into Private Messages, further enriching the cultural exchange within the game's storyline. Complete 100 cells to earn the exclusive Celebration Dunes Namecard.

The Silk Road, a vital trade route established during the Western Han Dynasty, facilitated significant cultural exchange between East and West. Gansu Province, and Dunhuang in particular, remain crucial cultural centers, preserving invaluable historical artifacts and traditions. Tears of Themis's collaboration beautifully showcases Dunhuang's artistic legacy.
