The cards all contain a mystery, and a mystery is always something very dark and enchanting. There are people who want to know their fate, and there are people who are just curious. In general, the cards don't like to be teased and they don't know what to joke about. Sometimes there are some things, it's best not to know too much. So the card you chose, what is it?

A lone figure, draped in a cloak woven from the threads of possibility, extended a hand toward the void. Where fingers brushed the air, the fabric of reality trembled, bending to an unseen will. The fabrics rose and crumbled in an instant, space and time rewound their course, and stars flared into being before collapsing into nothingness. This was not magic, nor was it divine intervention—it was the will of the Beholder. The Beholder’s breath was steady, but their mind a storm. With every shift in reality, memories flickered in and out of existence. A name lost. A face forgotten. They had shaped worlds, rewritten destinies, but now, the price of power gnawed at the edges of their soul. From the distance, beyond the undulating horizon where time held no meaning, a presence stirred. A ripple of something greater—something ancient and watchful. A voice, neither spoken nor heard, resonated in the Beholder’s mind. *You meddle where none should tread. The Balance must be upheld.* The Beholder’s lips curled into a bitter smile. “Balance is but an illusion,” they whispered, and with a mere thought, the sky shattered into a thousand reflections of possibility.
