Yard

The Yard is a location near the Abbey, home to Blade. By interacting with Blade, the player can Upgrade Abilities and participate in Daily Sparring.
== Daily Sparring ==
Daily Sparring allows Hunter to instruct teammates in the art of demon hunting. There is a cost paid in Credits, and rewards include Training XP, a Combat Bonus for the selected sparring partner, and Friendship XP.
== Upgrading Abilities ==
Abilities may be upgraded in the Yard. Upgraded Abilities are more powerful than their base versions, with potential improvements such as increasing damage, reducing Heroism costs, or adding new mechanics. Upgraded Abilities display have a different visual appearance than their base counterparts.
Upgrading a Card has two costs. First, the player must possess duplicates of the Card to be upgrade, which will be consumed in the process of creating the upgraded Card. Essence is also used in the upgrade process, with the type of Essence used depending on the Card.
Completing an upgrade also rewards Training XP.
