“When did you stop playing to win?” asks Iblis, pouring glass beads into the pattern that spells Hunger.

“I never started.” Leto’s amused, and moves her tokens one by one into the simple line called Love. “How do you keep score?”

Iblis steals Leto’s lead token to make the Sword. “Subjectively. The most aesthetically pleasing progression.”

“We’re unfit to judge that.” Slide and clack: Leto builds Ovens.

“Better bad judges than no judges.” Dirt, then Iblis pays for a reset to Hunger. “What’s a game without victory?”

Leto just sweeps the board clean with one arm.

Which is called Love Again.
