The querent enters the dimly lit room and takes a seat at the scarf-covered table. She nervously runs her finger over the tassled edging and wonders what the strange symbols on the scarf mean: a tangle of swords, staffs, fancy chalices and pentagram-inscribed plates.
The reader emerges from a doorway festooned with a beaded curtain, the beads clicking behind her.
She sits down across the table from the querent, and pulls a deck of cards out of her pocket. "What brings you here?"
The querent starts slowly, but soon a flood of concerns regarding family, lover, career, and purpose in life have spilled from her. The reader sits back, eyes half closed, taking it in, while shuffling the cards.
"Enough." She places the deck on the table and deftly separates it into 3 equal piles of cards. "Choose".
The querent hesitantly taps the middle pile.
The reader picks up all three piles, with the signified pile on top
"It was good you came here. This is no ordinary deck of cards. The cards will do more than point out a path to you. They will choose that path and set you upon it. It is sometimes a battle for supremacy among the cards. Do not let that concern you. The cards will determine whether your concerns are resolved favorably soon or if you have a great struggle ahead.
I will lay out a 9 card spread to explore your questions. We will begin the reading with the first card. It signifies past events that bear on your questions."
