Wow, this solution path was totally not what I was expecting, when I looked at the grid beforehand. Very enjoyable solve, after quite a bit of tapping in the dark at the beginning. Thank you for this puzzle, clover!

It combines three different restrictions and yet none of them is "Asterisk", haha.

Very enjoyable puzzle with a clean, intricate path, thanks. The palindromes in the center kinda look like a "clover"... And congrats on the CTC contest!
