Sirreli yanked one of the invitations from a street notice board eying it with a greedy eye. More than likely his employers would have him aid in catering the even if there were any particular wanted individuals...

Sophie Okayed the meal plan provided by her chef. Plenty of food, and probably plenty of left overs. The actors were hired and practicing for their Sunday performance. The servents all had what they needed to decorate Sophie's great hall for the event.

She grew tired of these soirees, but it was demanded of her standing. Besides, business was unusally slow and perhaps she could work up some new customers. In the meantime she sat in her small hut on the edge of her property and waited for her next appointment.

Sirreli's stuff is red Sophie's stuff is blue

A man walks up to you and hands you a letter. he is dressed in a fine silk suit wearing sunglasses and a fedora. under his jacket you can see a slight bulge at his hip.

A very young boy walks into your shop on the verge of tears. He is wearing nice clothes that are a bit roughed up and dirty.

without looking at the man he took the letter and pocketed it with a bemused smile. It looked like he may be attending after all. Without a second thought he began walking away not bothering to even acknowledge the messenger.

Sophie quickly uncurled the soft smile that tickled her lips. At last, a customer, and by the looks of it, someone who is willing to pay handsomely for some answers.

She hurried out from behind her table, decorated with a deep blue cloth covered with golden stars, moons, and suns embroidered into it. She wrapped her arms around the boy and ushered him to the upholstered, wooden chair that rested in front of her table.


Oh, my poor child. Come in, come in. Here you are, Sweetness.

She stands behind the chair, pushing it in to the table. She then pulls out a handkerchief from her bustier and hands it to the child in case he does start to cry, leaning in to his side while still standing behind the chair, her face next to the boys. She finally moves to her gaudy chair behind the table and sits down.

The chair has a high back with a sun and cresset moon perched on the top. The wood is painted to look like the seat is made out of gold. The arms twist in large spirals, with padding across the top. The armrests and seat cushion are upholstered with the same design as the table cloth.

Sophie reached into a small wooden box; an armored virgin fighting a lecherous looking demon is engraved onto the lid. Inside the box is a deck of tarot cards, their backs were a rich, purplish, blue, the same shade as the night sky right as it transitions into the black star field. An intricate golden design laced the edges of the cards. Sophie began shuffling the deck.


Now, my child. Tell me what you what to know.

Sophie didn’t even bat an eye. It felt like a strange question to her, but she’s had stranger.

What exactly do you mean, son?

Sophie handed the deck to the boy and had him shuffle. She slowly counted in her head. After a short while she had him place the deck on to the right side of the table. She grabbed each card and placed it face up on the center of the surface. First one, then another on top, but slightly off center. A third card is then placed across the first two. Next, she placed a card above the stack, one to the left, one below, and finally one to the right. Sophie then places a line of four cards to the right of the spread. The rest of her deck she placed back into her box and closed the lid.

She stops and studies the cards, trying to interpret their meaning. Finally, she looks up at the boy.


You are a very troubled lad with a troubling past and some shady characters around you. You wish for some stability, perhaps that which is brought on by knowing who you are. I believe you are not searching for yourself because you have lost your memory as you say. You are in fact an orphan, am I correct? I see some dark things around you. Do you live in the orphanage, or with a mentor attempting to rear you as his apprentice?

Sophie paused. Perhaps this reading would be harder than she thought.

Well, I will tell you what I see in my cards. There are no specifics here. They cannot spell out your name, but we may figure out something about those men.

She pointed to the center card; the one buried under two others.

This card signifies you. It is an ominous card, my lad. It is a card of death. It tells me that you are represented by violent change and death. This card on top of it tells me that you want to have some stability in your life, to promote yourself to a better standing than you currently are at. Perhaps, due to this trail of death you represent, these men do not want you to advance your class.

The card that crosses these two tells me that a dishonest and unscrupulous man who double deals and is very violent and treacherous is your main obstacle. Perhaps this man is the one who sent those thugs after you.

Sophie then moved her hand to the card right above the pile and pointed each card out counter-clockwise.

Your past holds an unreliable, deceitful, narrow minded, and sly woman. Perhaps this is your mother. It also says the woman is a gossip. There is one such woman that seems to fit that bill precisely. If I were you, I’d look up Rubina Gionni. You may be an unwanted child of hers. Next up we have your present. There is an unpredictable man who is swift to act, but these hasty decisions causes sudden departures. Perhaps you have a father or some other protective figure who is currently absent, which is why these men are able to come after you.
I see that within the next three months there is some sort of charity without wanting reward, but it comes as a failure of a promising project brought on by lack of interest. Be weary of any sort of investment you might get into, even as one so small. Perhaps your selfless charity will cost someone large sums of money and you’ll end up in worst trouble than you already are. In fact, I foresee some sort of hospitalization in your future. Farther than the act of charity, perhaps by year’s end. You will rest during this hospitalize retreat and you will find relief from your sorrow. Perhaps this rehab will solve all of your current problems, or it may mean that you will finally learn your true identity, for I do not see it now.

After a pause, Sophie moved to the four remaining cards lined up to the right of the spread. She started with the card closest to her and moved her hand up the line until she finished in front of the boy.

You see yourself as someone who must constantly overcome obstacles, this lack of identity is probably just one of multiple challenges you face daily. You wish to run away from these problems, but your only solution is to face them, for the relief you receive while in hiding is but fleeting. You see your homelife – or at least you would if you remembered it – as being filled with theft, foolhardy action, and ill news. You both hope to finally establish a happy and content family life, but you also fear that you’ll end up in a rut if you finally overcome these challenges. Be cautious, son, for in the end your life will involve an unreliable woman whose opinions change without reason or logic and is prone to hysteria.

Sophie looks up away from the cards.

All in all, I do not see a bright future for you and your past is clouded in darkness. Perhaps it is best to not know who you are.

Sirreli disliked his suit. It was brand new and horribly stiff at the elbows and knees and made his back itch but, it was all part of the job. He had had to carry a cake in already for the party.

He was curious though. Package could mean a number of things. If guests were bringing gifts this could be a very long night...
