There is no Fate, where the Universe is considered; there is only Intention. Things may have their proper place, of course, but once they get there... what they do is anyone's guess, including the Universe that brought them there in the first place.
Today's Intention:
The Four of Wastes, smelling blood and running, running; the Ax of Wilds, blade still wet with blood, in hot pursuit; and then...
Well, there are some things even the Universe doesn't know.
Welcome to the Penumbra, dear Traveler. We hope you enjoy your stay.
