ASCII Art Kings: Self-Destruction Mystery Cache

This cache has been archived.

sir-cachealot: After looking over the alternatives available for a re-hide, I decided to archive this one. My thanks to all who solved and visited. The remaining three ASCII Art Kings will remain active, so if you were working on this one just shift your efforts toward Contentment, Foresight or Victory.

Geocache Description:

The cache is NOT at the posted coordinates.

This puzzle cache is part of a winter-friendly series called "ASCII Art Kings". All four caches in the series share a number of features in common with each other, yet each must ultimately be solved in a different way. Cache subtitles are drawn from the Arcana Arcanorum, a system of playing card divination invented by Eric Max Francis in 1990 and first published on the web as an ASCII Art text file (how apropos). Puzzles in the series may be solved in any order and have no interdependencies.
