"Mystic Kimi seeks to broaden the study of Sharlayan Astrology, using both traditional and unconventional methods and tools. She offers a variety of reading styles and even the option to work with a novel coeurl-themed deck she dubs the “Coeur-acle Deck.” Find knowledge, insight, and personal growth through the wisdom of the stars!"
Corvan Beltardois
*Though a doctor by trade, Corvan's tutelage from one of his favorite professors at the Studium led him down the path of divination. Through his cards he receives intuition from the Fates. If you are dissatisfied with his counsel, he would do well to remind you that he is merely the messenger... but many of his clients have reported how frighteningly accurate his readings are."
