The Card Apprentice

This is both a work of science fiction and an exploration of the meaning of life, love, literature and art. Brainpower is no longer the main ingredient for being human in this far distant future world. Spirituality, physical balance, and diligence all come together as integrity for Chen Mu, the Card Apprentice. The cards which Chen Mu masters in his own scrappy way, distill all the powers of the cosmos – human and nonhuman – into something that is not a book, not technology, and neither art nor magic, but is these and more. Learn about these strange cards, which can embody everything you might imagine for the future of technology, but also a future beyond technology which promotes the best, and sometimes the worst, from mankind’s past.

Doubts

Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

A dazzling glow tore up the night, and the solid building was as fragile as paper in front of it. The blinding and incandescent light, without roaring, diffused at an alarming rate, and all objects in its path would be silently swallowed up and would vanish instantly.

The energy fluctuation in the air had become so intense that it made people crazy. Everyone in Dongrui was shocked! Numerous colors of light rose in succession from all corners of the city. Tens of thousands of card artisans wore different colors of energy masks and rose to midair, looking in horror at the glittering light in the distance. Even from more than ten kilometers away, it was still easy to see the dazzling white light mass.

The thousands of card artisans floating in midair looked at each other, speechless! The energy fluctuation in the air made each of them feel a deep sense of pressure. The destructive aura seemed to trigger the throbbing and fearfulness in their hearts.
