Hello, Lunatia. Permit me the chance to practice a new hobby of mine by reading your fortune.

I am aware there are professionals here who charge for this service - as I am only a hobbyist with no experience whatsoever, and no powers in the realm of future-telling, it would be unfair for me to ask for pay.

Ask any single question you wish.

[All questions will be answered by a real shuffle of a real tarot deck!]

A troubling state of affairs. I hope you have not had much malevolence to deal with at home, then.

[sivard]

Oh, there's always a lot to worry about, when you're like me. Humans and animals can be affected, too, but they're... affected in different ways than my kind.

But we do have ways to protect ourselves; pure vessels. They need to be blessed in some way, and my gun Siegfried, is one of them.

[hagrides]

Ah, I see. Despite being a god, I admit I do not deal much in blessings, so I shall have to defer to your expertise there.

[sivard]

Well, considering it doesn't affect me here, for whatever reason, I guess I'm lucky that I don't need to worry about it.

[hagrides]

From my own experience, being here puts one in a sort of stasis from effects that might otherwise be the end of you.

[sivard]

I'm definitely not complaining about it.

[hagrides]

Nor I. I should like to treat this stay in Prismatica as a vacation.

[sivard]

Hey, that's a pretty good way to think about it!

I've been here a while now, but it's really... not so bad, even when things go crazy around here. At least not compared to where I'm from. Heck, the place is called "Desolation!"

[hagrides]

I understand completely. My home is currently suffering from a plague - Lunatia is much more peaceful in comparison.

[sivard]

I'm sorry to hear that.

Desolation only very recently ended its own crisis.

[hagrides]

Worry not. Those farther along in time than I can confirm that the plague will end soon.

[sivard]

Good to hear.

Well, hoping that causalities are kept to a minimum.

[hagrides]

The sentiment is appreciated.

[Even if it's a few hundred years too late for that.]
