Cassandra's Tales and Truths
Cassandra’s Tales and Truths tells the stories that plague the dreams of an unwilling oracle hounded by her own insecurities. Aided by a more senior oracle, Cassandra offers up allegories to her unnamed and only vaguely described clients with messages based on the Delphic Maxims (or updated versions of such).
Notes from Dusk Desk - Story 13
They say discomfort is the beginning of growth, but honestly, it isn't always. I'm uncomfortable right now.

Story 12 - Simple Conversations
[Editor's note: It's getting to be a tradition to start these notes with an apology, and I hate that. But I'm sorry for the unannounced month hiatus. Real world burn out happened that I hope to make a full essay about just to explain.]
You: Speaking can be difficult some time. But it can be harder to know what to say. And yet, there are some strategies that work better than others.
"Simple Conversations" - a tantalizing offer, just not for the one who meets the goddess

Is it a strategy? Perhaps, but that just means there is a pay off, even if it isn't one you can see.

Story 11 - Locks and Breaks
[Editor's note: I'm so sorry for another late episode. The next notes episode will go up tomorrow, and then--hopefully--it's all on time from there. But I didn't realize how much bronchitis had wrecked my daily life until I was finally well enough to play catch up. I'm hoping I dug myself out now.]
You: Does anyone have everything figured out? You think you do, and that's why so many things look to be going your way, but it's just appearances, isn't it?

Story 10 - The Barter
[Editor's note: I'm so sorry for another late episode. My lungs are still wrecked from bronchitis. It's not the dreaded C, tests show. I just don't have particularly strong lungs. The weather and doom scrolling certainly haven't helped.]
You: It seems foolish to you, that you care, that you appreciate, but it isn't. Cosmic debts can be repaid, only if you keep certain things in motion.
"The Barter" - A dying man and a last hope seemingly out of reach, but events don't happen in isolation. Not entirely anyway.

Story 9 - A Matter of Substance
[Editor's note: I'm so sorry this episode is over a week late. A bad bout of bronchitis delayed this episode.]
You: You thought you understood the assignment, as it were. You thought you knew what to do. You're determined. Maybe too much so.
"A Matter of Substance" - Two objects both alike in material. But there's so much more to their stories than that.
