Zen Weaver
You walk through a spider web and PANIC!
But then, a wave of calm washes over you...
“Calm down. I need you to quit fussing up my web.”
How did you calm down so quickly?
An itsy bitsy spider abseils down to meet you. It seems willing to impart some techniques for gold.

The teeny-weeny spider begins a hypnotic dance and repeatedly chants.
“Thoughts don't affect reality. Panic is the thought-killer. Follow the plan.”
This makes sense to you. Big wise words from a tiny spider.

“Don't... move...” mutters the miniature spider as its forelegs begin to glow.
Then— in a rush of jabbing motions, pierces you all over!
A sense of weightlessness comes over you. Well worth the money.

Which option to take
- Arachnid Acupuncture if you have 250: two removals in Hive at 125 each matches the shop's early price and saves the visit. Emotional Awareness otherwise.
- Enlightenment is only for decks stacked with 2- and 3-cost cards, and even then two extra cards in the deck are a cost.
How it plays
Breathing Techniques: costs 50 gold and adds two copies of Enlightenment, a 0-cost Exhaust Skill that sets every card in your hand to cost 1 this turn, or this combat when upgraded.- Emotional Awareness: costs 125 gold to remove one card of your choice.
- Arachnid Acupuncture: costs 250 gold to remove two.
Options you cannot afford show as Locked.- For the removals you pick the cards first and the gold is taken afterward.
