We seek a cycle of fortune, we reshape a destiny.
Merely the dawn of another nightmare.
Contemplation, rationalization—mere cloaks for avoidance.
Fleeting greed, short-lived desire—neither will ever bear fruit.
All that we hold true is forged from devastation.
Nobility is a code of values ratified by the collective for mutual display.
People are so prone to reverie right at the threshold.
Or a sacrificial lamb?
Yet they are merely steps chasing shadows.

At 34, Minh did not ask whether to quit accounting. He asked if the weekend camera was real fire or a way to dodge the books while the Binh Thanh apartment was still on installment.
At 26, Minh Thu held two offers and a Wednesday 18:00 deadline. Four cards did not pick the conglomerate or the startup. They asked whether she could write her own reason in one sentence.
At 32, Minh Khang did not ask when an offer would come. He asked what he was hiding from his wife after the layoff email, and whether last year's test-tool folder could still be opened.
Short (Fictional) Stories About Tarot
“Even a river hits the rapids. Why would a life be any different?”
At 30, Huong wanted to close an eventful year by never mentioning it again. Five cards named the pattern before ease made her careless.
At 31, Khoa delayed telling his father the truth about An and the pregnancy. Four cards did not write a winning script — they showed how to open mouth and ear.
At 26, Quynh did not ask tarot which career to choose — she asked whether she was filtering or drowning. Four cards examined her filter, not life's search engine.
At 35, Huong kept seeing repeating numbers and cards after divorce. Four cards did not ordain her intuition — they asked whether she was walking in mist or hiding from life.
At 30, Thao did not ask whether he still loved her — she asked what she needed to understand before meeting again. Five cards promised no reunion.
