Our Final Cards

The Chronicles of Destiny Fortune Cards - Balance
We’ve already mentioned in a previous blog post that Balance was one of the last cards to make it into the deck. At the time it consisted of 57 cards (way over our original intended number) but it didn't feel right to us and, when consulted, the deck told us it still wasn't complete or finished! 

We reviewed the deck. We went over every card and the meanings attached and looked for any holes in our story or any scenarios we had missed. Balance came first, not surprising as we were focused on balancing the deck.

The Chronicles of Destiny Fortune Cards - Polaris
Polaris was another late addition to the deck. We had seen the image in Claudia’s gallery and loved it immediately, but struggled to assign a meaning to the artwork and so it went unused. On our revisit to the page the image jumped out at us again, as did the title “From a Distant Star”. 

Aha! We thought. She could be our guiding star that leads The Fellowship to The Baroness. And so, quite aptly, we assigned Polaris the meaning of finding direction and that moment when all the pieces fit together . . . 

The Chronicles of Destiny Fortune Cards - Alchemy
And our final card that was added to the deck? Well we needed a touch of magic, something that would take our working cards and transform them into The Chronicles of Destiny Fortune Cards – we needed a touch of Alchemy. 

After applying the finishing touches we consulted the cards again and were happy to find the deck agreed. Finally, it was complete.
