The Meredrool continues to spread across Praetoria.
While Battle Mages continue competing in the first Escalation Conflict, it's already time to prepare for the next chapter of the war effort.
Beginning on June 22, 2026, the Second Escalation Conflict will introduce another exclusive Archon to the Conclave Arcana era, offering players a new opportunity to strengthen their collections and expand their strategic options on the battlefield.
Each Archon brings new possibilities.
And every Battle Mage has the opportunity to earn them through the war effort.
🕛 Points begin accumulating on June 22, 2026, at 12 PM EST / 4 PM UTC.
The Second Escalation Conflict introduces Ghezira, a notorious Feliform raider from the Drybone Badlands.

| Rarity | Legendary |
| Mana Cost | 3 |

| Tactic Option 2 | Weary (2 Units) |

Ghezira's warband roams the Drybone Badlands like a brushfire. Anyone crossing her territory pays tribute in goods, flesh, or blood. She's not particular.
She rose through the chaos of the Drybone Anarchists the only way anyone rises. Violence. Her laughter cuts through battle, high and whooping, and it spreads like a fever. Those who ride with her throw themselves into the fray without hesitation or restraint, swinging steel and slinging spells with wild, mad cackles, just as likely to hit their own allies as the enemy.
When the Conclave Arcana pushed into the Wild Northeast, Ghezira saw opportunity. More caravans, more supplies, more bodies carrying things worth taking. She hit a conclave surveyor camp, killed the guards, and took everything that wasn't bolted down. She ambushed a Grimward scouting party and did the same.
Both sides sent hunters after her. Neither found her. The badlands are her home, and she knows every canyon, every cave, every shadow where a warband can disappear. Both sides tried allying with her too. She wasn't interested. Alliances mean obligations.
What she wants is the hunt and the kill. The moment when her warband crashes into an enemy line and everything dissolves into chaos, blood, and the wild joy of violence without purpose.
The war for Praetoria's secret rages across the Wild Northeast. Armies clash and magic tears the land apart.
Ghezira watches from the ridgelines, tail raised, muzzle split in a grin.
She'll pick the bones clean when they're done.
The Second Escalation Conflict follows the same structure as the first, allowing Battle Mages to stake assets, earn Conflict Chances, and compete for exclusive rewards.

Each Mage Wagon contributes toward your total Conflict participation and determines how many rewards you may claim.

Want more wagons? You have two options:
| Resource | Amount Per Kit |

| Wood | 17,500 |
| Stone | 7,000 |
| Iron | 1,750 |

These kits are tradeable and sellable on the non-card market.
Purchases work just like previous editions. The system uses DEC behind the scenes to acquire Wagon Kits from the market.
Each time you receive an airdropped card, one of your wagons becomes damaged and must be repaired before it can be used again.
One wagon becomes damaged for each airdropped card you receive, whether or not that wagon participated in the current Conflict.
If you have 100 wagons, 30 filled with cards accumulating points, and earn 40 cards as airdrops, then 40 of your 100 wagons will become damaged.

After each Conflict ends, players will have a two-day allocation period to decide how their Chances will be distributed among the available Foil Fortune Draws.
Once the allocation period ends, the Foil Fortune Draws will be conducted and rewards distributed.
Potions may be used to increase the number of Foil Fortune Draw entries, up to double the number of Chances allocated to a specific draw.
For example:
If a player allocates 100 Chances to the Black Foil Fortune Draw, they may use up to 100 Midnight Potions to receive 100 additional entries.

| Gold Foil | 1 Alchemy Potion |
| Black Foil | 1 Midnight Potion |
| Gold Foil Arcane | 1 Lustrous Potion |
| Black Foil Arcane | 1 Lustrous Potion |
Once a Conflict concludes, players may immediately begin preparing for the next Conflict.
During this period, Battle Mages can:
Wagon preparation operates independently from the Foil Fortune Draw process. Players may prepare wagons for the next Conflict while Foil Fortune Draw allocations are taking place.
The first Escalation Conflict is still raging, but another opportunity is already on the horizon.
Whether you're looking to unlock new Feliform combinations, grant Flying where it matters most, or create chaos with Weary, Ghezira introduces another unique strategic option to the Conclave Arcana era.
Prepare your wagons.
The Second Escalation Conflict begins June 22nd.
