alysanne & eija
IT WAS QUIET. ironically, the same quality that had initially drew her to the room now left her feeling restless. very much a fish out of water, eija wandered the old aisles– not bothering to pay any attention to the various titles adorning the shelves. it was spotting another, however, that brought her wandering mind back to reality. eija was nosy. so of course she crept closer, gaze darting between the woman and the cards sprawled out on the table before her. to be honest, she wasn’t too keen on the idea of card reading, though she wasn’t sure if her distrust wasn’t directly correlated to her general distaste of magic. the universal dependence on it had always felt foreign to her, likely in huge part due to the fact that she had been born without it.
a chuckle hummed in her throat when the seer spoke, ❝ something tells me the trepidation on your expression confirms that the read was, indeed, meant for me. ❞ with interests piqued– not that she really believed it– eija kept a light-hearted and nonchalant air about her as she found herself another chair. ❝ well, hell, if it’s free, ❞ a shrug rolled off her shoulders as a grin grew on her lips, ❝ let’s see what your cards suspect is in store for me. ❞
ALYSANNE CURLED HER lips into a smile at the younger woman’s words. the minute she’d entered the library, alysanne had sensed they would meet. she had the salty, stormy aura that the njorans shared ---- it was one that alysanne was always curious to interact with. locked high in her mysterious tower on the zorian plateau, she hadn’t seen much of them, except for in her dreams.
“who knows ---- maybe it was. card reading isn’t an exact science. not when it’s learned, at least.” she wasn’t afraid to admit her lack of expertise in the matter. she was high seer, after all, not a god. it didn’t surprise her that the devil card came up - strength and defiance were two of it’s main traits.
clear blue eyes watched as the other took a seat in front of her, and nimble fingers gathered the cards once more and began to shuffle. “tarot reading is more than just past, present and future. it’s more of a guideline on your life. to make it work, you need to meditate while i shuffle. close your eyes, and think on the things you would like the card to reveal.” she explained ---- she always went more in depth than other card readers, it was as much as an experience for her as it was for the stranger sitting across from her.
