Note from the editor: Ryan is immensely ashamed that he forgets to return to the discussion of Call to Adventure: The Stormlight Archive's solo mode, but assures me that his intent was to clarify that it suffered from the issues he already discussed, namely luck of the draw from the challenge decks, but a rather easy "co-op" mode, despite this. He also wonders how he could forget that the third card each player receives at the beginning of a game is called your "Destiny".
