Hello dreamers!
At this point I described a bunch of crap relevant to Patreon, which I no longer use in favor of SubscribeStar.
Anyway, here's Aletheia and her magical card things.
Aletheia (Allie for short) is a blind seer. I don't remember why I chose for her to specialize in tarot cards, but I find them the most dynamic out of the prophecy-type powers because they move around. Not only can Allie enchant the cards either to actually reflect a prophecy (or to arbitrarily display any card in the deck as a psychological weapon), but she is also a non-magical card shark and master of sleight of hand. I may have been inspired by a blind stage magician who was really good with cards after watching too much Penn & Teller, but I don't quite recall.
She does have a magic orb, as seen on her desk back there, but this is used primarily for combat. Crystal ball seers are a bit boring unless they have like an entire room rigged for theatrics.
I loaded this scene full of Elae Meltaea-specific symbolism that nobody but me understands, as my world does not have human cultures & religions directly, but feel free to make guesses.
