| The best way to begin to interpret your talis deck is by getting to know it as you would a person - one exceptionally long-lived and wise. The more time you spend in close observation of your deck, the more its arcana will philter in and and out you like air.
| |
|
| |
| it's not for the deck to reveal itself for you; it's for you to reveal to yourself through the powerful symbols and ancient wisdom portrayed in these seventy-eight cards.

|
| |

| OSKAR FEVRAS
| |
|
| |
| Fevras may be best known for the calibre of his clientele, but should really be commended for his attention to detail.

Though he has garnered the reputation of a flighty dilettante, he is a young master worthy of watching, to be sure.
