Wilder Mind

An often sought seer, as a matter of fact, she offered, flashing a smile. It had not taken long for Merilin to get the word out about her abilities across the villages and cities of Rivain once they'd awoken. It was a good source of income, but she did not make a habit of charging for surprise readings such as this. After all, it was her offer to do it.

But she could see something was needed. This was needed before he could continue his journey. Why else would he have been guided to her humble abode?

Her hands moved deftly with the cards, years of practice even before she'd gone into Uthenera. Satisfied with where they were at, she carefully drew a three spread. Then, flipping each in turn, she studied them. Her eyes would flick occasionally to her guest before she returned them to the cards.

To the first she gestured. Ten of Swords. Upright. You are at a low point. This has brought you here, now. Something will affect you that was not foreseen. Perhaps the loss of something once held? She offered out one hand for him to take, and if he would, she'd continue, tapping into a bit of her magic. You have forgotten. What was... What is... and perhaps yet what is to come.

They did the dance a couple times to her whim before dispelling. He shows me that someone will return to your life, perhaps someone that you have strong feelings toward. She gave no indication of the type of feelings, instead, letting her words hang in the air as she did once before.

Lastly, we have Justice. Briefly, her eyes remained on him, watching and studying his features, his reactions. After a moment, she smiled as she continued. We come now to your search for the truth. What brought you here, why you found yourself at a loss. She reminds us that not everything is as we originally believed. You have reached a tipping point, da'len, and you must be prepared to make a decision. But trust your heart. A small shadowy heart shimmered between them, beating and pulsing as if to prove her point. It will not lead you astray.
