Myths, religions, Isekai fantasies, the Cthulhu Mythos, the occult... Taking inspirations from diverse origins, this Rider-Waite deck is centered around the idea of "controlled madness" and distinguished by its antique look and solemn mystique. With light and shadow being central motifs, all illustrations are drawn in black and white with fine point pen. The extensive use of lines for shading and the artist's attention to details establish a sense of order. The restricted palette creates depth and subtlety. The message behind the deck is that to overcome our deepest fears and negativities, we must first learn to own them. "It is often the people who have the courage to explore the darkness that bring the light for others to follow," said the author. "I hope that by introducing this deck, I can share with you the courage to face darkness and become the light itself."
