"Well, I wonder.. Could you try remembering what it was? Maybe it was your.." Rayedem paused, hesitating. He wasn't only hesitating, but he wished he had not said anything at all. After some attempts of opening and closing his mouth wordlessly, he finally managed to continue, "..father.." he couldn't say the word 'death'. He remembered the conversation they once had on the House table, and maybe.. Just maybe.. He looked at his notes again.

"I mean, here it's written that one of the meanings of the Rune Graphorn is protection.. And there's also love," he began verbalizing his speculation, avoiding Tibi's eyes as much as he could--I really shouldn't say this! But he was being professional. Fingers crossed, he continued on, "and that it's past.. Maybe it tells us about.. Er.. The loss.." and that was it. He didn't wait for Tibi to confirm it.

"Yeah, let's do another one." he busied himself with putting the Runes back into its pouch, just so there wouldn't be a moment of silence. "Let's see, er, I'm gonna ask one about my sister.. If I'd see her again anytime soon." he said, then he shook the pouch with his eyes closed, just like he did minutes ago. Then he put the pouch down and began drawing the Runes. He put them in order--right to left. Graphorn, Quintaped, Runespoor.

He looked up from the Runes. "There you have it," he said, waiting for Tibi's readings, hoping the Runes had showed the good signs.

Tibi frowned. "I.. well.. I don't remember anything about my dad. So I.." he sighed. "I don't know." Maybe it had been his dad's death.. but he didn't remember it, so how could it be?

Grateful that they were doing another reading, Tibi looked at his book and at the runes. "Ok.. graphorn for the past. I'd say that points to your relationship with your sister, that you we're sometimes a pair and that you cared about one another a great deal. But the rune also means deception." Tibi paused. He'd suspected something was fishy about how Rayedem never saw his sister and here was a rune maybe insinuating the same. "So.. um.. maybe what you've been told about her leaving for that other school and not coming back isn't entirely true." Tibi swallowed the lump in his throat.

"Uh.. moving on. Quintaped for the present." Tibi flipped a page. "this rune means warning, fighting, isolation, and lack of focus. That could mean any number of things, including that your separation is distracting one or both of you, or you're being intentionally kept apart or isolated." Tibi thought this reading sounded too much like a conspiracy theory, but pressed on anyway. "Or, it could also be a warning to you about your sister." Tibi coughed, and avoided Rayedem's eyes.

"Annnd, finally, the future." Tibi was reluctant to even continue. "Runespoor." Oh no. Tibi read through the description. This was BAD BAD BAD. "Most of the meanings of this rune point to rumors, conflict, betrayal, treachery, confusion, etc. This could mean that if your path remains the same, a conflict or betrayal regarding your sisters absence may take place." Tibi sighed, reading through the book. "I.. well, I would say that the rune may be pointing to the outcome that will occur if you don't heed the warning of the present rune." This was no fun. Well, there was that one uncharacteristic meaning. "Well, there's also a note that the rune can mean unity... so maybe you'll be brought together anyway, even if it's not under the happiest of circumstances?"

Tibi sighed again, keeping his eyes fixed to the page. He was pretty sure he'd just told Rayedem that his parents or sister were lying to him about where she was or why she was there. He busied himself with recording the reading.
