Digital art of the Six of Cups tarot card, set in the astral sea, a galaxy coloured landscape. Slate, a blue tiefling woman is kneeling. In one hand is four arrows dripping blood, and the hand itself covered in blood. The other is reaching out to Gale across from her, her hand placed over his chest where the orb sits. Gale is reaching up and clasping his hands over Slate's hands on his chest. Two red circles encircle their hands and the mark of the orb. Both their eyes are closed in quiet contentment. Behind them are six swords upright, the three behind Slate have the symbol of the Zhentarim on them, whereas behind Gale is the 8 pointed star of Mystra.

Six of Swords

Slate and Gale

Upright: healing, moving forward, stability, escape, journeys, passage from pain

Reversed: feeling trapped, instability, abuse, unresolved issues, carrying baggage from your past

Had a lot of fun with this one! The symbols on the swords represent each characters abuser (Zhentarim for Slate, and Mystra for Gale). There are the obvious signs of the past sins committed (the blood on Slate's hands and Gale's orb), but the two characters are in a place of acceptance and healing together, moving on from past transgressions. This card usually depicts a boat on water, so I thought it would be cool to set the piece in the astral sea from their Act 3 romance scene!
