Long before the shadows settled in and darkened his soul, Ryou was already acquainted with the 'occult'. He sat in his bedroom after homework was finished and laid out Tarot spreads. It didn't help his popularity at school much, but thanks to his appearance, that was already a lost cause.
The future he concentrated as he cut the deck. Then he flipped the cards and read:
Tower, reversed- fear; imprisonment; destruction proceeding creation/revelation
Two of swords- conflict, opposing sides
Nine of swords- sorrow, anguish, mental cruelty
Anxiety gripped him painfully…
Three of swords- wisdom through suffering
He had a warning.
