What made you predict Dibella though?

Thanks for asking. Starting, I don't know, a couple or so years ago, there began to be more Dibella related stuff.

- The Passion Dancer rewards started in 2023 and the Passion Dancer's Attire became available.
- The Seabloom Villa uses hands in a similar way that the statues of Dibella depict. Using those hands makes flowers bloom which is interesting since Dibella holds onto a flower. This was last year.
- Dibella's Exaltation style was a Golden Pursuit this year.
- A follower of Dibella at Ontus in West Weald
- Solstice has a zone dungeon, the Vale of Revelry centered around contrasting Dibella with Sanguine (and Sanguine has been getting some love here and there too)

There is also an interplay between Dibella and Sanguine within the new zone. Given that their interplay is sort of surface level right now, I think that what we see now is just the tip of the iceberg. Also, it should be important to mention that many parts of various card games are designed years in advance. So I think it's maybe likely that there was still a Patron or two planned back then. Solstice still doesn't have a patron yet and if they did plan something, then I think that Dibella could be a good candidate to represent the zone.

Those are basically my thoughts. Maybe Mannimarco could be another option, but there hasn't been the same level of promotional items related to him. Developers tend to drop hints here and there I think.
