As you progress through these different quests, you may notice that all of them have a theme as well. Remember Year of the Hydra? That particular quest in the same name requires you to play or destroy a Colossal minion or even play an Infused card. These mechanics were introduced that same year through Voyage to the Sunken City and Murder at Castle Nathria!
