Upright

The gashadokuro could crush the village; instead it cradles one small lantern and the rooftops sprout green. Something enormous is over. Carry the light through it: dawn's already behind the bones.

Reversed

A skeleton propped up and repainted. Refusing the ending prolongs the haunting without saving the house.

Death, painted three times

All three decks run the same seventy-eight cards, so this one has two siblings: the same card, painted for a different world.

Grieve it properly and walk on: the road continues.See this one  →Death, from the Fill the Void TarotFill the Void TarotOut through a door left ajar, away from a dim room of outgrown toys, dawn light on her whiskers, not once looking back. Something is genuinely over. Walk through and don't turn around.See this one  →
