In 2022, a group of five role-playing gamers embarked on a new campaign in the homebrewed fantasy world of Idris. They used the Basic Fantasy Role-Playing system, reminiscent of the old-style Dungeons and Dragons gameplay. After each gaming session, the Games Master recorded the progress of the adventuring party using the Obsidian Portal Campaign Manager. This not only created an accurate record, of gameplay, but also allowed us to relive the immersive gaming experience. The copious log notes taken during their adventures ultimately inspired the creation of this book. For us, this book serves as a cherished memento of our gaming journey. For those approaching this tale with fresh eyes and minds, we hope you discover an exciting and entertaining story within. Enjoy the adventure!"The demon takes delight in the aftermath of battles, feasting upon the corpses strewn across the battlefield. As such, crows and vultures are the most obvious symbols of her power. She is often depicted as a beautiful female, but she is equally worshipped as a dread creature with avian wings, legs, and head. She is favoured by those who have succumbed to the sinister allure of cannibalism.

The Tarot is a deck of freedom. It has the potential to free from our own limitations, and to foster healthier relationships with ourselves and others. It provides glimpses of how a society might transform itself, inviting us to imagine and to create new ways of living within the wider community. Yet a thought-provoking view is that Tarot itself is subject to a certain degree of "bondage," and requires some sense of its own "liberation" - liberation from its links with fraudulent practices and New Age acquisitiveness; from the value-assumptions that embellish its more popular and mainstream decks; from a view of spirituality that moves little beyond that of self-healing for the privileged. One of the aims of this book is to examine such concerns, but also to explore more "liberating" forms of interpretation and practice.

"In the introduction of this well-written and insightful book, the basics of Buddhism are explained with such clarity, that even a novice can grasp the fundamental principles and follow its connection with Tarot ... Greer has done a remarkable, in-depth examination of both subjects, and he puts forward a compelling case showing the relevance of this connection. His findings are undeniably exciting and pertinent to people interested in either area ... This is an important book that finds philosophical, mythological, and symbolic correlations between Buddhism and Tarot. It may not be the first to explore these systems in conjunction with each other, but it's the most comprehensive and readable edition that I've found so far."Don McLeod from mistertarot.com.
