Report: 2
Card number: 2
Card Name: The High Priestess
Character: Acheron
"A figure shrouded in shadow emerged from the mist. A chill ran down the onlooker's spine as the stranger approached, their footsteps echoing eerily in the silent room. A sense of unease settled in the air, as if the very presence of this mysterious individual carried a weight of secrets and stories of her painful past. Everyone held their breath as she passed, their wariness palpable. Acheron, the beautiful ranger, sat down on a red couch in the corner, lost in thought. She slowly shut her eyes as she shifted away little by little. And in the dark, there was a pair of eyes set on her, analyzing her every move."
Black Swan gazed at the card in her hand, the word "The High Priestess" etched upon it. As she began to weave the tale of the High Priestess, her soothing voice and the serene atmosphere of the room seemed to envelop the Querent, leaving them momentarily breathless. Curiosity kills the cat, Querent builds up their courage to ask what happened next just to meet with Black Swan intense gaze.
"Unintentionally, the place she sat mirrored the card, situated between two columns, one black and one white. A red curtain, reminiscent of a stage curtain, hung between them, something must have hidden behind. This location can still be found in Penacony, perhaps at the Dewlight Pavilion. The two columns symbolize the yin and yang, representing the harmony of opposites. It is through this balance of differences that the building stands strong, much like Acheron, who possesses strengths rooted in this equilibrium.
At that moment, she held her sword, perhaps symbolizing the spiritual law that the High Priestess follows. It was partially covered, the mystery of the law can only be revealed to those initiated. And as someone who died alone, I don't think any of her secret laws would be revealed to anyone. Not those whose died under her swords, not those that belong to the galaxy ranger, not anyone else, who could understand her laws"
Black Swan said she knows everything about this "High Priestess" or as if she was there with Acheron at that moment Acheron. It was almost suspicious. She was never this captivated when talking about the cards or any specific person. She had never been so captivated when discussing cards or any specific person. The High Priestess must have truly piqued her interest. But after all, it was just a fictional story to help the Querent understand. The Querent stared at Black Swan as she continued.
"At that moment, you could almost see music notes dancing around, enticing people to join in and sway. Everyone had already joined the musical celebration, except for the High Priestess. She remained unfazed, sitting as if she owned a crown. And in a way, she did, an imaginary crown she truly deserved. A goddess, a ruler. Authority and power were hers. As they called her, she was an Emanator, bringing death and finality.
If you had been there, watching over her, you would know that no one else mattered. Not the Fool, not the Magician, not anyone else in the 22 major arcana. I even considered that if Acheron and Sunday, the Magician, worked together, they could overpower everyone. Sadly, that didn't happen. She was like the ocean, a river flowing gently with the wind, while he was like a bird belonging to the sky. If they had collaborated, it would have been like forcing the bird back into a cage, preventing it from growing. But do you know who could have connected them? The Fool."
Black Swan continued her relentless analysis of the card and the person named Acheron. While the Querent found the story interesting, Black Swan's excessive focus on Acheron began to make them uneasy.
"The peaceful aura around her was short-lived as someone approached. The silent watcher, their footsteps swift and quiet like a ghost, appeared beside her in a blink of an eye. Snapping her back to reality with a question, she didn't answer but simply shook her head. Receiving the answer they wanted, they offered their hand and asked..."
Black Swan offered her hand to the Querent, as if trying to reenact the scene from the story, captivating the Querent with her vivid storytelling.
Then how about a dance?

Note:I know people usually say that healers in the game are more suitable for The High Priestess while doing research. As a Tarot Reader myself, I believe that Acheron is so much more powerful than The High Priestess. Everything about her screams this card. What do you guys think? By the way , please tell me if you guys find uncomfortable with me switching between and cards names like how sometimes I write Acheron, sometimes I write The High Priestess. Appreciate feedback, thank you for reading ❤️❤️
