Oravi Island? Sea King Kottman did go there a few days ago... Was it because of these Elf Temple ruins?

Alger, the Hanged Man, narrowed his eyes as the pieces fell into place.

Xio Derecha, Judgment, knew more. After a moment's thought, she realized Abner had encountered another scene in the Dream Labyrinth Tower where dreams and reality intertwined, just like during the Clover incident.

And this time, a Subsidiary God was involved? What floor had he reached?

Fors, the Magician, had once again run into something she knew nothing about. Swallowing her pride, she quietly asked Miss Justice beside her.

Audrey knew little about the Ancient Gods herself, but the Sun had told her a few things when they spoke privately after the last Tarot Gathering. She gave Fors a brief explanation.

At the mention of the God of Luck, Derrick, the Sun, looked guilty. "I'm sorry, Mr. Tower. My clearance wasn't high enough to consult the library's upper-level records, so I couldn't find any more books about the God of Luck."

He thought Mr. Tower had asked about the God of Luck to prepare for this expedition into the Elf Temple, yet he had been unable to help.

"It's all right. That was never your obligation. Our earlier trade was fair and square." After reassuring Derrick, Abner obtained Mr. Fool's permission and conjured a series of images from memory. He showed the Hanged Man, Justice, Judgment, the Magician, the Sun, and the World fragments of what he had seen and experienced, supplementing them with explanations.

Of course, Abner left out the bell ringer and Life School of Thought councilor Ricciardo, the steamy affair between Latitia and the governor of Olavi, the details of the three trials, and the so-called "opportunity" he had seen in the Elven Royal Court
