zeeth_kyrahGreetings! I recently had an inspiration for something I could do to contribute to a few DW friends, and tonight got a push from a couple of my spirit guides saying "Do it!"
I'm offering free wisdom card readings from the Hero's Deck, a collection of 36 cards in 3 groups. It's essentially a summary of archetypal Hero's Journey fragments, including Heroic Aspects, Heroic Gifts, and Heroic Challenges. The twist on this reading is, I'm offering these readings particularly for peoples' characters, whether from stories and poems, games, or whatever venue. I'll be answering in character as a traveling bard and sage, Jewel the Water-Singer. Feel free to get creative, write intro text or descriptions of actions, or simply ask questions of the diviner. Jewel will answer as many as four questions for you, though your character might want to offer a gift for more than two.
(If you want a reading for yourself, go ahead and ask, I'll answer this one in character anyway.)
Since anyone can ask, character or not, the usual local-world warnings apply. (Federal law says this is for entertainment purposes only, I'm not a licensed anything, and so on.) The readings will be open from the time of posting until Tuesday, October 2nd, Eastern (New York City) time zone to give those with little warning a chance to drop by.
And with that, the local marketplace now has a busker with a small folding seat and a small pop-up table, where sits a woman dressed in red-striped pantaloons and a player's (actor's) fancy green velvet blouse with pale undershirt. She has a mouth organ (harmonica) and a small thumb piano with her as well, and alternates playing tunes and singing snippets of folk song, and giving readings to her audience. On the table is a blue silk bag upon which sits the box holding a deck of cards. Next to the bag is a large quartz point with unusual clarity and a hint of rainbow in its facets. This person would not seem too out of place in a Spanish or French Renaissance marketplace, though she looks somewhat Iranian or Lakota. (Perhaps she is of mixed ancestry?)
The bard calls out, "Come one, come all for the wonders of heroic wisdom! Let the ancestors witness, for life is the play and we are the players! Who will partake of these insights? Let Jewel the Water-Singer tell you mysteries from the further realms! Ask once, ask several times! Gifts for the sage are also quite welcome!"

It is of butterflies I have dreamed, massed on plants where they are not normally seen, appearing in such numbers that it's difficult to see what kind of trees they're fluttering around. They're very small, no bigger than the first joint of my thumb, but other than that I cannot get a good look at them, for that the group I am with hurries me along, insisting that they cannot go on without me. But I don't know where they, or I, are going, or even if it's all to the same place, or why - only that every time we move on, another cloud of the butterflies appears and settles on any surface they can find, fluttering and fluttering."

Eyes locked to her querent's face, she passes the cards from one hand to another, stopping close to the end of the pile. That card she drops on the table, where it flips face-down, and she looks at it.
"There, that is your hidden variable." With all the cards turned over again, the variable is revealed to be Charity.
"So it is a charitable gift that will free you, overwhelmingly so!"
