• TO EVERYONE •

This is Wanda.

Last time I brought this up I held conversation with quite a few who had concerns regarding the meaning of their own fortunes. Some worried about how much of a negative impact it could hold on them, or what it could mean for themselves as a person. How their actions here could affect who or what they could become. I took some time since to work on divination practices, joining what I could find in Solvunn about it with what I was told Lady Elin would do to get her readings.

I don't think I have all the answers, but I have some amount of... certainty. Which I think is nice to have considering how often we are proven wrong by circumstances we thought as true here. It has given me some peace of mind, personally, and maybe it will for others.

Her readings of my "future" don't match what I was able to see for myself. I'm aware that different interpretations can be a factor, but— these readings focus on what can be found on someone's overall life paths, a way to define who a person is, what drives someone. Potential situations, but not something quite set in stone. They may be meaningful reassurances, or a puzzle to work out. I'll continue to try and understand this better. And I won't mind getting to talk about it, either.

Let me know if you go see Lady Elin again, though, and if you'll mind me reading your fortunes sometime, too.

( there's no future for her in her star, himeka. )

I would imagine it would be for my time here.
Have you gotten your fortune read before by her?

[aquaveiled]

I did once, yes. What she said was a little odd...she looked like she didn't exactly want to tell me.

[carmesi]

Picking at future possibilities will always sound a bit odd.
The images I get never make quite enough sense until I peg them down with specifics.

[aquaveiled]

How do you normally figure it out?

[carmesi]

It takes some amount of meditating. Using some High Magic rites in the mix.
It's easiest for me to practice it in the lakes.

[aquaveiled]

So a place to help clear your mind. And it gives come clarity to what you see?

[carmesi]

It does. It seems that the rites that Lady Elin uses are very similar to what can be found in readings here in Solvunn.

[aquaveiled]

I suppose that shouldn't be too surprising considering the history the Lunae share with Solvunn.

Mayhaps we should test this? We can visit Lady Elin and then see what you can divinate and whatnot.

[carmesi]

You sure? I don’t know how she will react to someone trying to push into her turf, so to speak.

[aquaveiled]

Only if it wouldn't be a problem. I know that she reads for the Summoned from time to time, but I really haven't gone to her in what feels like forever.
