The Belandria Tarot

Life became a whirl of social events, planning and challenges. Torrance found a suitable warehouse. It had a large empty space for workshops to teach trades, and offices that would be used as classrooms. The biggest problem with the warehouse was its owner. It belonged to Marriette's father.


Marriette had sworn never to set foot in her father's house while he was alive, but a week of their month had already vanished. People beyond number depended on her to deliver on her promises.
