Maea’s silence was telling, and Alys felt her heart go out to the Ancient who she thought might be becoming a friend. It was strange to consider this person against the Maea she’d met long before, but she supposed that time had a way of changing people, shaping them into new forms and figures that didn’t always align with the past.
The cards lay on the table between them, a glaring reminder of all that Maea had been through and enough of a story for Alys to imagine that life had been difficult for the Ancient. While she didn’t know details - and she didn’t need to, especially not with her magic that shared Maea’s emotions with her - she knew enough to know that Maea was deeply impacted by the reading.
Alys drew another card silently at Maea’s request, considering the depiction of a person sitting up in bed, nine swords poised overhead. ”The Nine of Swords,” Alys said. ”Suggests that if you are expecting terrible outcomes, they will follow you. Even though it’s hard, this card pushes us to consider what positive things may happen through our actions, letting go of our worries and anxieties and being brave enough to take the first step towards something good.”
