The Fortunes

In the town of Coltou, Mariel, Maiwen, and Valentine were stopped by Lyra Sybil Corvus, an eccentric fortune-teller, who read the fortunes of our heroes. Lyra chose three cards for each adventurer, one to represent the past, one for the present, and one for the future.

VALENTINE'S FORTUNE
'''The Wheel of Fortune (reversed) - past Death (reversed) - present The Hanged Man - future'''

“So much has been taken from you,

More than you know,

A man of misplaced time and misplaced mind,

Stagnating, scared of moving forwards,

With no compass to go by,

You remain lost if you do not learn,

But learning brings pain,

And with the pain comes a choice.”

MAIWEN'S FORTUNE
'''Justice (reversed) - past The Fool - present The Hermit - future'''

“More than you seem, more than you let on,

You’ve seen more than you want to,

You’re afraid of what you are, what you could be,

A smile given to the terror, courage presses through,

But you’re blind to your answer,

There is a road you are looking for,

It has already crossed your path,

Yet you cannot see it.”

MARIEL'S FORTUNE
'''The Chariot - past Temperance (reversed) - present Death - future'''

“Half a life spent in struggle,

Half a life of persisting against the odds,

You are a person of conflicting halves,

With a lack of harmony within you,

And a surplus of persistence,

Loss is ever present in your life,

But though the tide retreats,

It always returns.”
