Book Four - "Tent"

Part One - "Tent"

The Fortune-teller's Tent is east of the Agora. The description is "Silks and gauze drape the surfaces in this tent. A small table, surmounted by a crystal ball, is the focus of the room."

The small table is scenery in the fortune-teller's tent. The description is "A small, silk-draped table, surmounted by a crystal ball, adorned with a messy pile of face-down tarot cards, is at the center of the room." Understand "silk" and "gauze" as the small table. Instead of doing anything other than examining with the small table, say "Madame Sosostris freezes you with a withering glance."

Some tarot cards are scenery in the fortune-teller's tent. They are ambiguously plural. The description is "A bunch of cards, for divination, lie in a messy heap on the table." Understand "heap", "messy", "divination", "pack", "wicked", "deck", and "bunch" as the tarot cards. Instead of doing anything other than examining with the tarot cards, say "Madame Sosostris freezes you with a withering glance."

The crystal ball is scenery in the fortune-teller's tent. The description is "Strange shapes seem to swirl inside the crystal ball." Understand "strange" and "shapes" as crystal ball. Instead of doing anything other than examining with the crystal ball, say "Madame Sosostris freezes you with a withering glance."

The Agora is outside from the Fortune-teller's Tent.
