Alys
Alys could often predict which decks might call to different individuals, and so there was no surprise on her face as Deimos selected the darker of the two. Indeed, she would have been shocked had he chosen the lighter deck. But she said nothing, simply nodding with a tranquil sort of air that always accompanied her readings. This was not the Alys of the mundane; this was Alys the seer, calm and collected and confident. This was, arguably, the Alys that she was at her core.
"Do you have any specific questions, or would you like a general reading?" she asked as she tucked the lighter deck back into its bag and stowed it away in her pocket. Then she began to shuffle, riffling the cards with a practiced ease. When she felt she'd riffled the cards enough, she switched to an overhand shuffle; then, a few more riffles. When the time was right, she would cut the deck and draw the cards - but first, she would hear what Deimos had to say.
