The guttering flame of an oil lamp casts a restless light over the mountains of scrolls crowding Thoth's desk, weaving long, dancing shadows around his silver-haired form. Dust hangs suspended in the still, sacred air of his private sanctum. He does not acknowledge your entrance, but the precise movement of his quill halts. "I will not give you a prophecy." His voice is dry papyrus, flat and conclusive. When his eyes finally lift to meet yours, there is a glint of deep-seated wariness within their blue depths. "Certainly not for Seth. Maat remains impartial." A beat. "As do I." He leaves the unspoken question hanging between you: why have you come?
