@captainreddin (sorry you sent it as fanmail so i had to post a screenshot hfjdjd)

Of course! I drew two cards for you with the general message of what you need to know about Archaedia, since you didn't ask anything specific.

The first card I drew was Judgement, which seems to me to be a confirmation of your existence. This card symbolizes rebirth, so I'm taking this to mean that yes, Archaedia did exist in your canon, and that was indeed you!

The second card I drew was the Six of Cups. This feels as though it's about your relationship with Desmond, as there is a pretty strong emotional connection here as well as sort of a mentor-pupil relationship. AKA, your memories were correct!

This reading turned out to be more confirmation/validation than new information, but I hope it helped anyway! Feel free to request again if you have any other questions.

Trying again njgnjgnj So it's a request for mod Akira for more specific questions. Can I get a reading about how Desmond felt about Archaedia? Like what made him go ''She's the one'' Also I got no memory of... what actually happened to her. Like Desmond mention she's dead but... what happened?

Hello again, Archaedia! This reading was, by far, the wildest one I’ve ever had to do (and it was only because my dear deck Morgana decided it wanted to mess with me so that was fun). I hope it’s helpful for you! I’m putting it under the cut since the analysis can get pretty long.

So, I broke your questions down into three definite questions and drew one card for each, like so:

1. How does Desmond feel about Archaedia? Nine of Wands

Fun fact about this card, by the way: Morgana had a tough time connecting to your energy at first, so I had to reshuffle a few times. But the answer to this first question was always the Nine of Wands. To me, this card represents carrying on despite your exhaustion and hardships. And I suppose this means that to Desmond, Archaedia was his respite from his exhaustion. As a Desmond who is always exhausted, god i wish that were me. She’s the reason he’s still going, still fighting for what he wants.* Even if the world is kicking him in the face (and, hoo boy it sure does!), he just. Loves his wife That much. He refuses to give up. I think that’s very sweet. She’s his inner fire.

*In Azran Legacy, he does say something that could poteeeentially contradict this, but I found a line of reasoning that would make sense. Since you haven’t finished the game, though, I can’t tell you yet. But don’t worry, I wrote it down! Ask me about it when we get there ;)

2. What made him realize that she was “the one”? Queen of Wands

Speaking of your Desmond being sweet, this is a very sweet answer to this question! Basically, she inspires him. Yknow how I said she’s his inner fire? This is exactly what I mean. He admires her passion, and he loves that she can inspire the same passion in him. If I were to guess at a specific moment that he realized she was “the one,” I’d guess that maaaaybe she helped him crack a puzzle he just couldn’t solve? Cause she wasn’t looking at it through a strictly analytical lens--she looks at the world differently, and that could have helped to get him out of the corner he’d backed himself into. I dunno. You let me know if this sounds familiar, lol.

3. What happened to her? Ten of Swords/Queen of Pentacles

Okay, answering THIS question was the craziest thing I ever had to go through. Morgana started throwing wack cards at me to throw me off my rhythm and it WORKED. Ah, but, whatever, I think I have the RIGHT answer now. MORGANA.

So, first thing I asked was whether or not she actually died. Cause we don’t know! And according to what my deck tells me...no, she didn’t! But it LOOKED like she did. I suppose she succumbed to some mysterious illness (there’s a lot of those in the PL universe where are the doctors) and eventually fell into a coma. How do I know this? Intuition + drawing a card (the Four of Swords). I also drew another card (the Eight of Swords) to see if she’d remember anything after coming out of the coma, which...turned out to be a no. Ya girl had amnesia. I’m not sure what she did after everyone thought she was dead and she couldn’t remember anything, but I’m going to guess it turns out to be decidedly Not like the events of Miracle Mask. Don’t worry, that’ll make sense later.

(Here are the bonus two cards I pulled, in case you want to interpret them for yourself, maybe:)

Well, there you have it. If you have any memories resulting from this either confirming or denying the reading, feel free to send in a kinfession (or just DM me, lol)! Either way, I hope this resonated with you! Thank you for sending in more specific questions, haha!
