The game’s clues

The Heroes Assembly of Velvet Shade is famed for gathering the talents and beauties of the realm. Held periodically at Kaifeng Revelry Hall, it calls upon heroes from across the realm to convene.
Velvet Shade boasts countless beauties, with the finest among them known as the Twenty-Four Flowers. Among them, the greatest dancer is the Revelry Hall Master. Dance and martial arts share the same origin; when the exquisite bird dances, hidden agendas may lie beneath.
