Tarot memory share [Phoenix]

[guillotineroom]

The room you enter this time is an ostentatious fortune tellers tent. Colourful silks drape the walls with intricate golden constellations embroidered on the ceiling. Various crystals, candles, magic 8 balls, and other superstitious sundries are scattered throughout the tent.

In the centre of the room is a table with ten chairs around it, and three cards laid out for you:

HIEROPHANT, STRENGTH, SUN

[ RULES | TURN-IN ]

Willin' to put my money on Faith for that first one. It can't be Sun, 'cause that's us. Can't be Moon 'cause I'm pretty sure Sholmes and I have that one nailed down already. With the creation story and all that talk about gods, I don't see what else it could be.

[totalmisplay]

If that's the case, the second one is pretty Hope-ful.

[gunmettle]

That'd make the last one, what? "Aeon"? Not sure I'm familiar. You're our card shark, what's the meaning of that one?

[totalmisplay]

I mean, on a literal level, eons are just really long stretches of time. Seeing things zoomed out on a long-term scale? But it's also an equivalent for Judgement. A renewal. Transforming the world or whatever. It does talk about a "new strange world".

[gunmettle]

Jeez. There's a lot more to these things than I thought. Guess we can put it down as a maybe unless we find somethin' that fits more.

[totalmisplay]

Some of these arcana are the fringe stuff... Whoever set this up is real into this.

[gunmettle]

I guess they had to come up with enough for all of us somehow.

Actually, backtrackin' a bit to that first memory, anybody know a guy who stands about so tall-- [ he lifts his hand to rest about half a foot over his own head ] --kinda scaly, with horns and the whole deal? Real demandin'.

I had a brief run-in with him. He was askin' after his weapon, "The Scale of the Father". Seems to fit with the mythology, but I didn't get a name outa him before he wandered off.

[totalmisplay]

Really? Check the profile mugshots in the registry. I bet you can find him if he's still here.

[gunmettle]

[ TIME TO SCROLL. After some time, he turns his phone to Stoat, and sure enough. ]

The memory talked about "he of the Midnight Scale". Looks right to me.

[totalmisplay]

Bingo! Who says stalking doesn't get you anywhere?

[gunmettle]

That pins down the team, at least. It's lookin' like my Faith guess wasn't too off target.

[totalmisplay]

Faith, Hope, Aeon works for me.
