The Arcana connection
Bosses aren't just obstacles — they're your progression. Defeating one seals it into an Arcana (full system guide), a tarot-card ability Rose equips. This means:
- Boss order matters — each victory expands your toolset
- "Turns bosses into friends" — the top search phrase about this system, and it's literally true: bosses become your powers
- Expect classic Metroidvania gating — some areas open only with a specific Arcana
