The Rising - Another disappointing event

[TaleraRistain]

There was a previous year without a minion, I believe during SB?

Nope, I looked up all the old websites to double-check my memory. They all had minions. The 2017 one was one with both Lyse and Gosetsu and it had that awesome NES dungeon crawler event, too. The 2018 had Cirina.
