Author : Gabriel May 02,2025

Tears of Themis has unveiled an enchanting collaboration event named Ballad of the Dunes, partnering with the Culture & Tourism in Gansu Province, China. This event beautifully integrates elements of the historic Silk Road and Dunhuang's rich cultural heritage, introducing players to new limited MR cards and an exclusive Namecard, all set within a narrative steeped in ancient history.

The Ballad of the Dunes event is scheduled from February 13th to 20th, offering players the chance to earn Camel Bells, S-Chips, and other rewards through task completion. Camel Bells serve as keys to unlock cells, revealing a variety of prizes, including the coveted Ballad of the Dunes MR cards.

Participants can engage in four rounds of gameplay, with the opportunity to select one of the new MR cards as their final reward after each round. Flipping 100 cells will also grant you the special Celebration Dunes Namecard. The new MR cards feature the four male leads adorned in designs inspired by Dunhuang's artistic traditions.

ytLuke's card, "In the Footsteps of Silk," Artem's "Serenade of the Soul," Vyn's "Reverberation Through Time," and Marius' "Void of Creation" all incorporate motifs from the Silk Road's history, such as flying apsaras and the iconic image of the pipa played behind the back from Dunhuang murals. The storytelling continues through the characters' Private Messages, highlighting cultural exchanges.

The Silk Road, a vital trade and cultural exchange route established during the Western Han Dynasty, played a crucial role in connecting the East and West.
