tarot post mark 13

[harpbeat]

Has it been... goodness, nearly three years? Clearly I am overdue for a Tarot reading day.

[A deck is on the table in front of her.]

Simply focus on your question while shuffling the deck, and inform me of your question when you return the deck to me. Then I can read your fortune.

[Any game, any character will be read with a real shuffling of a real Tarot deck!]

Oh man, I haven't done this with cards in ages. [Astra shuffles the deck steadily, handing it back with a nostalgic smile.]

Hey, if you want, I could totally read the stars for you after you read the cards for me. As for questions... [A slight sigh.] Things have changed a lot back home- hopefully for the better, but it's a still a pretty big shakeup. How do you think my world's going to do?

[Three cards!]

The Moon - confusion, fear, illusion.

Page of Swords - be truthful, be logical, be just.

Five of Pentacles - hard times, ill health, rejection.

Hmm. Even in cases where the change is for the better, it is all too easy for people to slip through the cracks when a great upheaval occurs, and too often is their plight simply missed or forgotten. Keep an eye out for those who are in need of support.

[disastra]

[She gives the cards a wry look.] Welp, I guess peace and quiet was a little much to hope for.

Striking down fear and illusions with truth and justice sounds pretty accurate for how we got to this point. ["Be logical", on the other hand, is pretty much a nonstarter where Breakers are concerned.] As for the rest... I don't love it, but hard times are what healers are for.

I might not like to work hard, but if I have to for everyone's sake, then I have to. [She shrugs.] C'est la vie.

Indeed. As tiresome as hard work is, the smiles on the faces of those you protect are rewarding, are they not?
