Enchantment and Illusion

You will find yourself in a fairy forest, following deadly marsh lights and perishing, enchanted by the dances of cunning creatures in mist and ferns. This is a card of air castles and being bewitched by dreams, which can lead both to success and to chasing the unreal.

Core Warning

The main thing is not to mistake the imaginary for reality.

Visual Description

In a shadowy forest clearing two small winged figures kneel among thick ferns, their pale wings contrasting with the dark foliage. Around them stand several tall, cloaked stone forms or altars each bearing a chalice motif, and soft, greenish will-o'-wisps drift between them. Towering tree trunks and a dense canopy frame the scene, filtering faint beams of light downward. The Roman numeral VII is visible at the base of the card.
