Alys
this night is alive with the smell of insane —
For one of the first times in her life, Alys felt positively gleeful. This random encounter with a stranger had brought her clarity over the one thing in her life she had never quite understood: her magic. She could see her path forward more clearly now. She could use her magic to enhance the experiences of her patrons as she read the cards for them. Maybe, if she got good enough at it, she could even earn a living wage by sharing her abilities.
The daydream slipped from her mind as the stranger spoke again, and she paused thoughtfully, unsure how to explain herself to the man. The easiest way would be to show him, but with it still being such a new idea, she wasn't sure how to go about offering. "I - it's hard to explain," she said hesitantly. "To show them... to show them the unseen. To help them see themselves more clearly. I could... show you? That might be easier? If you - if you have time?"

— it's reaching for me and it's calling my name
