  "myth_source": "https://www.theoi.com/Text/HesiodTheogony.html",
  "myth_connection": "Hesiod 639–653 has Zeus restore the Hundred-Handed Ones with nectar and ambrosia before seeking their aid. The feast restores the pilot’s ability to intervene: fresh plans and usable reserves arrive together. It is a finite meal, not a permanent reward for owning a large creature.",
  "narrative_beat": "The feast restores the coalition and makes the decisive intervention possible.",
  "design_note": "A four-mana emergency refill and mana reserve that is naturally instant speed and copied by Zeus. It depends on no creature mana value, creature count, or prior spell count. Each resolution creates three untapped Treasures, so the pilot can keep answering later opponents. Self-exile bars ordinary spell recovery. This is deliberately far above the efficiency of routine card draw.",
  "signature_demo": "During an opponent’s end step, four mana and Zeus turn Nectar into six cards and six Treasures, plus the Zeus draw. The pilot has paid one card and four mana for seven cards and six temporary mana sources. This finances answers on later turns and a finite army; it does not cast spells for free or replay itself. Without Zeus it still produces three cards and three Treasures immediately.",
  "counterplay": "Counter the spell and copy separately, or remove Zeus before the cast. Removing Zeus after his trigger has triggered does not prevent the copy. Instant graveyard hate is not an answer to a resolving Nectar, and no creature-based condition can be disrupted; the fair response is to contest the stack or the next battlefield commitments. Treasures remain vulnerable to artifact removal.",
  "art_brief": "A huge exhausted hand receiving a small luminous cup from Zeus, against a simple dark cavern wall. The golden nectar supplies the only warm light.",

Rarity mythic; small orange-red lightning mark at type right.
Footer: Z06 • CLASH • CUSTOM • PLAYTEST
No end-step ability, X, mana-value condition, other old rules, flavor or reminders. Leave relaxed space in rules panel; do not inflate type excessively. Beleren-style title/type and readable Plantin-style rules serif. Keep painting and all other layout geometry unchanged.
