Spring Festival Special features only one Gallery Card—titled "Of Festivals and Friends"—unlocked through participation in the Fortune & Colors limited-time event.
OF FESTIVALS AND FRIENDS[]
"Beautiful, isn't it, buddy?" Star-Lord asked as he joined a solitary figure on the balcony of the Wakandan royal palace. "That endless field of stars up there? There's no place I'd rather call home."
Peter Quill wasn't wrong. The Intergalactic Empire of Wakanda was truly a glorious sight to behold. Yet still, Lin Lie — the Immortal Iron Fist - couldn't help but let out a sigh of dismay as he gazed at the celestial bodies glimmering above Birnin T'Challa.
The strange events of the Timestream Entanglement had swept these unlikely allies into an epic conflict that had dragged Lin Lie light years — and perhaps entire dimensions — away from both his home on Earth and his adopted home in the fabled city of K'un-Lun. The heroes he'd encountered along the way had embraced him as one of their own, but Lin Lie still felt like an outsider. Now more than ever.
Even though the timestream was a mess, Lin Lie still knew that it was almost the Spring Festival back in China. By now, lanterns would be hung and dragons would be dancing in the streets. Knowing that he would miss this beloved celebration weighed heavy on his heart.
Gallery Card: "Of Festivals and Friends"
"I get it," Star-Lord said, placing a hand on Lin Lie's shoulder. "I don't think I've ever felt as alone as I did on my first holiday away from Earth. But you've got friends here... and we're not about to let you miss out on all the fun!"
Before Lin Lie could protest, Star-Lord led him through the palace to a workshop where Princess Shuri stood waiting.
"Wakanda is a nation steeped in tradition." Shuri said. "but a true empire respects the traditions of all those who have helped to make it stronger."
"What her royal cat-ness is saying," Star-Lord interrupted, "is that we're throwing our own little Spring Festival in your honor!"
"I... don't know what to say..." Lin Lie stammered. He hadn't realized that his allies were even aware of his customs, let alone that they would go out of their way to help him observe them.
"Say I didn't spend the last few days gathering intel about Chinese celebrations for nothing," the Black Widow said, entering the room to join her fellow heroes.
"Not at all," Lin Lie replied. "It would be my honor to share this special time of year with all of you."
"Then, let the festivities begin," Shuri said, activating a hologram that depicted an arena clearly designed for sport rather than combat. Soon, the image morphed to show elaborate costumes, each one incorporating cultural influences that sent Lin Lie's mind reeling back home.
For a mere moment, his thoughts were no longer on the battle to save time and space, nor on his duty to protect K'un-Lun and the refugees in the Eight City. Instead, Lin Lie simply felt the joy of the season... and of the friends who had helped bring it to him, all the way on the other side of the galaxy.
