=== Kagetsu & Seadall ===

[Seadall]
Hmm... La Roue de Fortune─the Wheel of
Fortune in the upright position...

[Kagetsu]
Hello, Seadall. What are you doing?
[Seadall]
I'm honing my divination powers using a
Tarot deck.
[Seadall]
While I'm best known for my dancing, I'm also
skilled at fortune telling.
[Kagetsu]
Already you excel, and yet you remain in
continual practice. You are very dedicated.
[Seadall]
I have my reasons...
[Kagetsu]
I see.
セアダスAs long as I'm practicing, I could give your
fortune a read, Kagetsu.
[Kagetsu]
Oh, no need. I already have this ability.
[Kagetsu]
I will demonstrate! Ahem...prepare yourself!
[Kagetsu]
Soon you will be eating...sliced meats layered
between two breads!
[Seadall]
Yes, that's right. But how did you...
[Kagetsu]
I told you. It is my ability to see the future.
[Seadall]
You can just...see the future?! Could you show
me how?
[Kagetsu]
I am surprised you are so interested! Alas,
my power cannot be taught.
[Kagetsu]
I was born with this gift. I did not acquire it
by learning.
[Kagetsu]
But it is cooling fans in winter, as they say.
Useless. I get only inconsequential details.
[Seadall]
I see.
[Seadall]
Eh, it sounds like I should probably focus on my
own divination skills.

[Kagetsu]
Seadall! I have glimpsed your future again. Your
performance this evening will be well attended!
[Seadall]
No need for your skills on that front. My
performances are always packed full.
[Kagetsu]
I can also see that it will rain tonight. Be sure
to prepare for your walk home.
[Seadall]
That does seem fairly obvious, Kagetsu. Rain
clouds just rolled in.
[Kagetsu]
...
[Kagetsu]
You see? Useful as cooling fans in winter.
[Seadall]
Your premonitions really do seem to be for the
most useless things.
[Seadall]
If this power of yours was only a bit more...
applicable...I'm sure I'd be quite envious.
[Kagetsu]
No need to envy abilities like mine when you
can read fortunes.
[Seadall]
My fortune-telling skills are well-regarded,
sure... But sadly, they aren't perfect.
[Kagetsu]
Why do you say so?
[Seadall]
My master...the one who taught me to dance...
he was attacked and killed by thieves.
[Seadall]
If my divination skills had been perfect, I would
have seen it coming. I could have saved him.
[Seadall]
So, I keep honing my skills in hopes I don't ever
have to experience that kind of regret again.
[Kagetsu]
Perhaps you would read my fortune, then.
[Seadall]
Your fortune?
[Kagetsu]
Yes! You said that you wish to sharpen
your skills.
[Kagetsu]
I would gladly serve as your training partner.
[Seadall]
That would be very helpful. Thank you.
[Kagetsu]
Think nothing of it!
[Seadall]
Well then, let's see what fate has in store
for you.
[Seadall]
Kagetsu, as the fog of destiny parts to reveal
what lies ahead, I see...
[Seadall]
Oh no!
[Seadall]
It's La Mort...the Death card. And it's in the
upright position.
[Seadall]
It means misfortune awaits you.
[Kagetsu]
What?!
--- A ---


[Kagetsu]
That was terribly close!
[Seadall]
Kagetsu! What happened?! Was it...misfortune?
Was the card right?
[Kagetsu]
I did not realize...there were bear dens near my
training ground!
[Seadall]
But...there's not a mark on you. You seem
perfectly fine.
[Seadall]
What a relief! I suppose my divination
was wrong.
[Kagetsu]
No... No, it was right!
[Seadall]
What?
[Kagetsu]
I was prepared for misfortune. As soon as one
bear came toward me, I quickly fled.
[Kagetsu]
Without your prediction, I would have trained as
normal and failed to notice until too late.
[Seadall]
So...my fortune telling saved you?
[Kagetsu]
Indeed, Seadall, it saved my life. Thank you.
[Seadall]
No. Thank you, Kagetsu. This has given me
more confidence in my divination skills.
[Kagetsu]
Good. Phew! This rubbing elbows with death
has made me hungry.
[Kagetsu]
...
[Kagetsu]
Just now I caught some glimpse of you and I
sitting down to eat.
[Seadall]
I'm sure your premonition is right. In fact, I bet
your vision showed us eating sandwiches.
[Kagetsu]
Meat between two breads─how did you know?!
[Seadall]
Well, as it happens, I had just decided to treat
you to a meal.
[Kagetsu]
Ah! This gives me another vision─one in which
our friendship blooms.
[Seadall]
Ha! No need for divination there. We're already
friends.
