Tarot Reading: Orang Bunian
Elven people in Malaysian, Indonesian and Bruneian folklore.
Tumblr media
The Emperor. King of Pentacles.
They are a people with long history. They originated from the mountains. They passed down from generation to generation their skills and knowledge in metalworking, cooking and esotericism. They are a people who value their origin and traditions. Their worldview is square and fair. They believe in reciprocating kindness, justice and the importance of maintaining the law of the land. They are welcoming to folks new to them but do not tolerate well folks who seek to change them, belittle them or demonize them in any way. They are powerful when alone, invincible when united.
They are in tune with nature, especially mountains and natural rock formations. They know the forests' secrets, all their hidden trails as well as nature's hidden alarm clock that humans seem to be oblivious to. They're willing to teach a household a thing or two should they become attached to a certain family. They can become very attached, as they're also very loyal. They would be one of the house spirits, helping with this and that amidst the daily humdrum of mortal life. All in all they consider themselves a simple folk who loves a simpler life.

Tarot Reading: Leprechauns
Faefolk who guard treasure in Irish folklore.
Tumblr media
Four of Pentacles. Three of Cups.
They're busy country folks although some do enjoy the hustle and bustle of the city. They're quite a wild, comical bunch. They can say the most random things and do the most random moves like flip a coin and it somehow lands on top of their hats after which they'd take a bow and it would happen so smoothly you'd think they've been doing this for ages when it could just be some random trick.
They're part of the fair folk, that's for sure. They're not tricksters but some do enjoy pranks. They usually like to leave behind something shiny, or make something disappear. If you smell booze out of nowhere they could be near. It isn't difficult to befriend them once you've gained their trust as they often have a warm personality. Just make sure you leave behind something for them too, as bartering is in their nature.

Tarot Reading: Seri Gumum Dragon
An Asian dragon/Naga/giant serpent said to inhabit Lake Chini in Malaysia.
Tumblr media
Knight of swords reversed. The Emperor reversed.
A rush of air. From inside the lake, everything on the outside looks reflected and upside down. A ball of light, its warmth reminiscent of the sun's but so much more mellow. “I know you have been wanting to see me. I do, too. But some things are beyond our control. Let's just treat this as a fun excursion?”
“There have been many old tales, many old kings, many more messengers. Time might seem frozen here, but would anyone still care when you're supposed to be a storybook tale? The days have long gone, still it never escapes me how life brings you surprises in many ways. The tunnels are long. I wonder if I could outlive the planet, or would it outlive me?”
