Sitting above the grey fog, Loki blankly looked into the distance wondering about what he was about to do while fidgeting with the ruby ring around his finger.
"It would've been better if I had Arrodes." Loki thought out loud and sighed at his misfortune.
"Well, hopefully, the Sefirah Castle keeps safe."
Bringing the Topaz pendant into his hand, Loki finally held it loosely and let it still.
Once the pendant was still and no clear movent was apparent, Loki whispered in ancient Latin, wondering if he was crazy to perform such a divination in the Sefirah Castle.
Letting his astral body gaze into the Spirit world, Loki murmured.
"The headmaster is a Beyonder of the Spectator pathway."
"The headmaster is a Beyonder of the Spectator pathway."
"The headmaster is a Beyonder of the Spectator pathway."
…
"The headmaster is a Beyonder of the Spectator pathway."
Loki opened his eyes slowly and looked at the pendant, it was turning clockwise in the most vigorous motion he had ever seen.
'Damn, I've been living next to a spectator all this ti.'
'Well, that explains all the coincidences.'
"The reason he's probably trying to form a story is because he wants to complete the Apoteosis ritual to ascend to a true god, and as far as I rember all he has to do is make a prophecy about the current tis and as long as the current tis follow his descriptions he will beco a Sequence 0 Visionary after getting everything else."
"Now I have to rember, never to speak about 'Adam' or even think about 'Him' outside the Sefirah Castle in the future."
"Is there an organisation nad the Psychological Alchemists in this world? Is there a Twilight Hermit Order too?"
"I need to get more Beyonders on board to learn about this world."
"Is it ti to start the Tarot Club?"
Loki thought for a while and then picked up the pendant that was lying on the table in front of him.
"It is a good ti to start the Tarot Club today."
"It is a good ti to start the Tarot Club today."
"It is a good ti to start the Tarot Club today."
…
"It is a good ti to start the Tarot Club today."
The pendulum was spinning counter-clockwise but slowly which Loki took to an that there was still sothing restricting him and would make it a bad ti to start the club.
"What could be an obstacle?"
"Is there sothing I don't know?"
"Or is the obstacle just the Aurora Order chasing down?"
Loki perford a divination again to check if the problem was the Aurora Order and he found the pendulum spinning slowly anti-clockwise.
"So they are the problem but there's also sothing else?"
Loki thought for a while but didn't understand what else could be the cause behind it not being a good ti for him to start the club.
'Is it because there's a mber of the future Tarot Club who cannot join right now?'
Loki quickly divined about it and found himself looking at a pendulum swinging clockwise.
'Looks like there are going to be troubleso mbers joining the club later.'
'Wait no, I got distracted.'
'I have to figure out what is 'Adam' trying to do.'
Loki thought for a while and then rembered a vague detail he had missed.
'Wasn't there a theft in the Gringotts Bank?'
'Didn't Dominic seem sure that there was sothing about it related to the thing that Fluffy is protecting in Hogwarts?'
'And since this is the story of Harry Potter it should be related to you-know-who?'
Loki closed his eyes and let his astral body float along in the spirit world.
"The item that was moved from Gringotts to Hogwarts that you-know-who attempted to steal."
"The item that was moved from Gringotts to Hogwarts that you-know-who attempted to steal."
"The item that was moved from Gringotts to Hogwarts that you-know-who attempted to steal."
…
"The item that was moved from Gringotts to Hogwarts that you-know-who attempted to steal."
Keeping his eyes closed Loki's vision suddenly shifted from the darkness of the Sefirah Castle to what he assud was a vault at Gringotts.
A brown package barely two inches in size seed to have been picked up by soone Loki recognised, Hagrid.
Just as Loki was about to give up learning more about the package his vision shifted once again, this ti moving to the mirror Loki had seen during the winter.
The mirror of Erised.
He saw Albus Dumbledore standing in front of the mirror and holding what appeared to be a black crystal skull from whose eyes blood leaked and fell to the floor.
Under Loki's persistent gaze, Albus slowly sent the crystal into the mirror, vanishing it without a trace as if it never existed.
Dumbledore waved his wand and caused the droplets of blood that had fallen to the floor to vanish and walked away, breaking Loki's vision of the scene, and returning him to the familiar darkness of the Sefirah Castle once again.
'Why did he not take any Anti-divination steps to ensure no one would figure out where the object was?' Loki imdiately thought.
'Unless he wants a specific person to know about it and co to get it.'
'It's a trap.'
'A trap specifically designed for soone.'
'So is the Aurora Order and you-know-who colluding together to get that skull?'
'But then what is the skull with blood dripping from it? Is that skull a Beyonder characteristic?'
'Which pathway is it from? It should be the Pathway that you-know-who is from if it is ant to bait him right?'
'If it is a Beyonder characteristic, that ans you-know-who is still not a True God or even an Angel. But if it is a Uniqueness of his pathway that ans he's at least a King of Angels.'
'He's dangerous for either way.'
'Can I divine about it? No, unless I know the divination isn't harmful to I shouldn't push my luck.'
'I might be becoming a stalker with how much I'm using divination to check on things.'
Loki thought with a sigh and teleported back to his room after leaving the Sefirah Castle.
With him back in the room, Loki looked at the Niffler who was patiently writing poems in the Niffler language he had created.
'If I'm going to be fighting, shouldn't this brat that keeps getting fatter like a chicken also learn how to fight?'
Loki pulled Sunny by the nape of his neck and the scholarly Niffler that had sohow gotten a pair of small glasses on its nose looked at him with frustration.
*Squeak* *Squeak*
"Yes, I know you need to write poems at Midnight to digest the potion, but you're going to learn how to fight with , so that you are useful for sothing at the very least. All you do is sit around in my room all day and get fatter."
*Squeak* *Squeak* *Squeak*
"No, I don't believe a Midnight poet must have a nice round and fat belly, co on, let's practice fighting together from now on."
With the lazy Niffler finally practising with Loki a new part was added to his already busy routine leaving him very little ti to sleep so he developed dark circles around his eyes, giving him a cute panda look that Hermione always teased him about whenever they t.
