			<link>http://monolithgraphics.yuku.com/topic/638/t/Two-of-Swords.html</link>
			<description><![CDATA[ Two of Swords <br>________________________________________<br><br>There are two swords that are mounted on the wall. They are crossed and the pommels are pointed down. They look as though they can be removed from their position. Behind them is a symmetrical design that based on the fleur-de-lis. Above the design is a crowned skull. On either sides of the skull are leathery wings, and below the jaw bone is a diamond shaped pendent looking piece, similar to the broach worn by the vampires in... ]]></description>

There is one MAJOR difference, as well as a few minor ones.<br><br>The major difference is that the sword is pointed down. In the majority of the other decks that I am familiar with, the sword is pointed up. This leads me to one of the minor differences. In most other decks, the sword is presented by a hand.

The sky is filled with ominous billing clouds (can you see the faces in the clouds?). Shining through a small break in the clouds is a full moon. A huge castle is the main focus, raised above the surrounding countryside and surrounded by a very thick fog that is low and clingy. A stroke of lightening arcs down towards the castle. A set of stairs, built into the face of the stone... ]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ A blind draw.  I did not pick a favorite card, but instead let the Tarot come to me on this initial entry.  But as i do this, I do not want it to just be one story or one perspective.  I would hope everyone would feel free to add or adapt the story to fit how they see the card, knowing that from day to day, the story can change to each of us.  This isn't showing off our writing skills or our vocabularies.  This is for nothing more than fun.  So let's get too it<br><br>The gravestone sits long... ]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ As I wander through my Gothic Tarot cards, I have certain favorites; cards that speak to me not only in a divination way, but in the artwork, the images, the layout.  And it got me to wondering... do we all like the same cards?  Are my favorites the same as everyone elses?  Somehow I doubt that.  So the question is WHAT IS/ARE YOUR FAVORITE CARD(S)?  And why?  What do you like about the card?  What draws you to it?  Nothing elaborate or verbose needed here, just tell me what ya think.  As... ]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ After putting it off way too long, I recently ordered a copy of &quot;Tales From The Dark Tower&quot;.  If you have ever entertained the thought of getting a copy, quit thinking about it and do it.  It totally blew me away in that even though it is a collection of short stories and that it is 263 pages long, it was not near long enough.  Don't think about it, order it now.<br><br>But in reading it, a thought came forward.  So unused to new ideas coming to me, I at first panicked, then stopped... ]]></description>

Her wings are out but down. She has a decanter in each hand; each is tilted and pouring liquid. Her right one is poring onto the stair leading to the portico and the left one is pouring off the side and into the clouds. She is watching what she is doing her left hand.
