"You've come to seek...," Ann paused, her voice trembling.
As she spoke, she tugging at the hem of her clothes, unfolding the divination mat again slowly.
"Yes," Zed said.
Ann's eyes widened in shock. She continued to explain, her words spilling out in a rush.
"I am glad, my lord. But after I showed you my abilities, I was stucked, lost all inspiration. Now, it's all just tricks and deceptions."
She looked at Zed with fear in her eyes, biting her lip before continuing, "It's nothing more than a psychological comfort, like therapy. I don't know if it really help..."
Zed sighed deeply as he pulled a chair back and took a seat. Fatigue etched on his face as he spoke, his eyes filled with weariness.
"Yup...That's what I'm looking for. After this, I will tell you what I had in mind last time. Don't worry, morality is just a tool for me to live better, but honesty is another matter."
