MILDEW
Caught in the middle of a hundred and five
Ever seemed a little hesitant to pick a card; Mildew couldn't help but laugh at his aghast expression as he saw the skull. She let Mateo draw too before she spoke though, stirring the pot a couple of times as he spoke - a kind child, it seemed. She liked him.
Once she was satisfied with the state of her recipe, she stepped down and knelt next to them both. "Don't worry, darling." Mildew said first to Ever, picking up his card and facing it toward him. "These cards are not literal. Their meanings tell me things that might not be obvious. This card actually means a change is about to come, possibly one that will make you grow. That can only be a good thing, when you're still young." The witch gave a warm smile and handed the card back, hoping it might now have taken on a different meaning for Ever.
As for Mateo... "Ah, The Star. You're lucky - though I suppose that's what happens with two Demi God parents. This card means inspiration and love are coming your way, if they aren't already there. Safrin must adore you." A simpler, easier fortune to give.
