Some cards don’t just show up—they hit you right in the nostalgia. When I saw this one, it instantly transported me back to Final Fantasy VIII. I spent countless hours running through this place, then soaring above the world in it. For me, it wasn’t just a school—it was the school. My own version of Hogwarts.

Ah, the nostalgia is hitting me right smack in the face with this card. I spent days running around this place, and later in the game, flying around in it! This place was my Hogwarts, hahahah. The school where so many things happened.

I’m honestly surprised it’s not a legendary card. Sure, there were others like it in the game, but this one always felt special to me.

Still, I’m just happy to see it finally show up in card form. And hey, I’ll be more than happy ramming this 5/4 thing into someone soon, hahah.

Legendary or not, this card brings back everything I loved about that world. It’s more than just stats—it’s a memory made playable. And yeah, I’ll be slamming this nostalgic beast into someone with a big grin on my face.
