"While the objects around me--while the carvings of the ceilings, the sombre tapestries of the walls, the ebon blackness of the floors, and the phantasmagoric armorial trophies which rattled as I strode, were but matters to which, or to such as which, I had been accustomed from my infancy--while I hesitated not to acknowledge how familiar was all this--I still wondered to find how unfamiliar were the fancies which ordinary images were stirring up". The fall of the House of Usher, by Edgar Allan Poe.
About Me
- Evangeline
- In the Arthurian Tarot I am represented as the "Stone Queen". I would not let you believe so cold and hard thoughts of me, rather I am better represented as the "Murrhine Queen". The stone applied to delicate, valuable vessels by the Romans, strengthening them to endure use.
