Weeks pass, and he doesn't catch a single card.
When cards become active, he goes looking. They just disappear before he gets there.
He's getting worried, and he's not sure he's satisfied with Kero's explanations.
He tries to focus on school.

"Can they tell us when one is already active? That was a problem when they were being captured by someone else."

He sighs.
"Yeah. You guys can talk about magic, I'm going to meditate with my cards."

Way less than the Windy, also less than the Fly, yes. The Fly is just a very big bird. The Maze can barely be said to be sentient, let alone sapient.
"Of course I'm going to science it. Just not sure how to get a statistically significant number of people."

So the Maze has no preferences?
Does there seem to be a clear scale from most sapient to least?
...Does it match the shapes they take?
