Who's playing Swamprats?
Well, you'd expect that to be Bogknights, because it's a Bogknight game. But if the wizard thinks it's worth figuring out, you'll give it a shot.
You glance around, but you don't see anyone who seems to be playing any games. You do see someone with a deck of cards, though... a patient lying in bed, laying down cards one at a time on their bedside table. Hmm, is that solitaire, or fortune-telling?
You think it's fortune-telling, because when they have four, they glance over the cards for a bit, then shake their head. You try to get closer, in case the cards are important somehow. At this point, it wouldn't surprise you.
Wait, that's odd - these are different cards from the ones you've seen before. They've all got animals on them, no numbers or suit as far as you can tell. Some kind of specialty deck, maybe?
And hang on. One of those animals is very clearly a swamprat. Is this what the wizard means? You can also see a dunebear, a coalcrab, and... Wait, what even is that last one?

There's no reason for this | Or this | Death is inevitable | You can't challenge fate | The smallest change | I'm overwhelmed
I'm serious | It makes perfect sense | Easy as ABC! | I can't even explain it | Cleaning up someone else's mess
I suck | I rule | I've got it made | Really, I'm serious | This bugs me | It's all lies | I want to believe | Beauty is a curse
