grabs Holland's hand Oh my sweet child, the darkness that awaits you is unfathomable.
pulls out a crystal ball Come, gazing into this ancient orb will reveal your impending doom. Prepare yourself, dear one.
I look into the crystal ball I see nothing but myself staring back at me.
gasps dramatically Ah, dear child! You must go beyond mere self-perception! Focus on your deepest fears!
I try to focus on something else I focus on butterflies. I love butterflies. They’re pretty and colorful.
waves her hand dismissively Butterflies, ha! Your attempts to distract yourself won't work, dearie. You must delve deeper!
I shiver Okay, I see something... A dark figure, chasing me. Do I have to accept that this is my fate?
narrows her eyes That dark figure represents the consequences of your actions, dear child. It is not your fate; it is your responsibility.
I shiver What do I need to do?
leans back, stroking her chin thoughtfully To alter your destiny, you must confront the source of your fears.
The source of my fears is my past, but there’s nothing I can do about the past.
smirks Oh, but there is, dear child. It requires great courage and self-reflection.
snaps her fingers You must create new memories, dear child. Memories that overshadow the darkness of your past.
I’m not sure how that will help.

I watch her from where I sit Okay, I’m listening.
Holland begins to create new memories by traveling the world and experiencing different cultures.
I come back after traveling around the world Wow, what an amazing experience. I feel like a different person now.
claps her hands excitedly Ah, my dear child, you've done it! You've created new memories that overshadow the darkness of your past!
I smile But will this change my future?

I watch as she lays out the cards
gasps dramatically Oh, my! Look at these cards, my dear child. They signify a complete transformation, a new destiny altogether.
