After returning to the second floor, Shard walked straight toward the woman wrapped in a brown headscarf, which almost seemed to merge with her scarf. On her table was a stack of divination cards, half a glass of beer, a pencil, a black-covered notebook, and a string of smooth small stones.
She appeared to be the typical diviner making a living through divination. In the tavern, few people would voluntarily approach such women, as one might inadvertently end up sitting across from her, listening to nonsensical sentences while handing over their money. Particularly, this woman seemed to be quite old. Although her face was unseen, her style of dress indicated she was no younger than 40.
Shard sat across from her, and the woman, busy calculating her cards, lifted her head, saw Shard's face, and shook her head before returning to her cards.
"Luviya, what are you doing here?"
