[ you've stumbled on the exact dragon age tarot fanartists dilemma. the eternal tug of war. anders and his two very precise and accurate cards, its the kind of greed they talk about in the bible.
going to sit down as well, pulling the card over to look at it - not able to quite look zuriel in the eye. the imagery is clear enough. a tower in flames, two figures in free fall. the halo of a shattered circle of magi bobs very lightly over his head. ]
[ she doesn't mind that he can't look at her. she lets him have that moment to himself and allows him to take the card for himself. i'm glad fandom also agrees. anyway... the tower can in fact be a scary sort of card. ]
You think so? [ lightly. gauging where his head is. ] What kind of change does it seem to be? There are different variations of "not good."
[ he's not having the easiest time handling a flat card with bandaged hands, but is doing his best. ]
Change rarely comes peacefully. Those who oppose it will blame you for upsetting the "peace" - so they can continue to peacefully ignore everything around them.
Ignorance and peace are very rarely the same thing. If anything it's actually worse because the only person you can blame is yourself in the end for ignoring all of the signs.
[ ...there's a sigh. ]
And still, people die. [ there's a pause. ] ... we'll find them somehow. They're not completely destroyed, just lost.

... the Tower. It's symbolic of change. Dramatic change, really.

It doesn't seem like change for the better.
