The "Redemption Stories" will be as luxurious and high end as they can but without foil (which is the magic word for delays).

The Royal Silk deck which is our first “Redemption Story” is the Red version, which was meant to be part of the first year’s Patreon. As you know, we decided to reprint all Royal Silk decks, as we felt that there were things that should be improved, although many people don’t see how this deck can be improved... So, the first Redemption deck is the red sibling of the Purple edition which was offered as “Royal Silk Test print”. Unlike the purple edition, this one and all Redemption Stories are available exclusively to Patrons.

This tuck case will be the same for all the "Redemption decks". The only difference will be the roman numeral for each "volume". The deck inside will be visible through an opening in the back of the box. All decks will be numbered, with a fancy, signed extra card as a certificate of authenticity. I also added the year 2022 on the front because... what is a Lotrek edition without a date out of time on it to laugh with?

The decks are numbered on the outer tuck case and Patrons will have their number.

But, wait... What is a Lotrek deck without more changes... We decided to include in this month's Redemption Stories the 180 decks that were printed with the first Royal Silk print run and were intended as gifts for the first year's Patrons. These decks are printed in Gold and Silver foil and contained in a Black Tuck case, instead of two gold foils on the original Gold and Gold editions

The Gold/Silver will be limited to 1 per patron, everyone who placed an order for 2 extra redemption decks, will get:

• 2 Gold/Gold (in the grey box)
• 1 Gold/Silver (in the black box)

• 1 Gold/Gold
• 1 Gold/Silver

If for some reason you don't want the Gold/Silver edition and you prefer to have only Gold/Gold, let us know by sending a message.

So, each Patron from the first 2 years will be getting one "Redemption Stories" deck for free, with the option to add another one or two maximum, depending on the print run. There ended up being about 60 Gold/Silver (Black tuck case) and 50 Gold/Gold (Grey tuck case) decks available for secondary sale.

Are Patrons from Year 3 eligible to get these free decks?

No! You will have to wait for your turn to join the club of the Masters of Patience, at the end of year 3. Although it's most certain that you eventually will, right now your rewards are not delayed.

The first “Redemption Story” Vol. I is the Red version of the Royal Silk deck, which was meant to be part of the first year’s Patreon. We decided to include in this month's Redemption Stories the 180 decks that were printed with the first Royal Silk print run and were intended as gifts for the first year's Patrons. These decks are printed in Gold and Silver foil instead of two gold foils that are in the other Redemption Story Vol. I - Light Grey tuck version.

A showcase of foilwork virtuosity and definitely our most intricate until now.

We are using two different gold foils on the face cards and back. One shiny and one semi-gloss creating a multi-layer and mesmerizing effect as the light plays with the different degrees of sheen of the two foils!

Printed on a silky purple stock, wrapped up in an amazing tuck case that resembles the feel of silk fabric.
