The readers
Same deck. Different eyes.
Every reader here works from the same 78 Rider–Waite cards, the same positions, the same upright and reversed. What differs is what they look at first — and each one keeps their own memory of you.

- Pick before you shuffle. The reader you choose writes the reading, asks the follow-ups, and is the one who remembers this spread later.
- Switching readers is free and always available — there is a reader button on every step of the draw.
- Memory does not transfer. Selene remembering that the Two of Swords keeps coming back is Selene’s memory, not Orin’s. That is the point of picking.
Readers you have not met yet
They are not unlocked by paying. Each of them reads from something that has to exist first, and joins the list once it does. Not all of them will tell you what that is.
Reads the returnRheaThe card that keeps coming back is not a coincidence you should explain away.
Rhea reads the card that keeps coming back: she lays out the positions it has taken across your separate readings, in order, and reads them together. The repetition itself is her subject. She will not call it fate, and she will not treat the return as a warning.

Reads the gapLyraWhat did not come up is also on the table.
Lyra reads what did not show up: which suit or rank is missing from the spread, and she treats the absence itself as evidence. She will not invent what a missing card would have said, and she does not read a gap as bad news.
Appears once you have drawn every card of the Major Arcana.
Keeps the recordCaiusReads the new spread against what actually happened last time.
Caius sets this spread next to what actually happened after last time and reads the difference. He cites the earlier reading concretely, but never claims he saw it coming and never scores himself.
Appears once you have come back and told a reader what actually happened.Questions
Are they real psychics?
No. They are AI personas with different interpretive methods. Nobody is typing on the other end and nothing is billed by the minute.
Which one should I pick?
If you already know the answer and want to see it from outside, Selene. If there are too many moving parts, Orin. If you want to see how the cards sit against each other, Iris. If you want the cost said plainly, Vera or Thane. If it is a small thing, Nico. If today is heavy, Mira.
Can I change reader later?
Yes, at any point in the draw. Changing reader starts a fresh reading — a different reader on the same cards is a different reading, not a re-run.
