O.K. it's me again... It took me ages to come up with something this time, has anybody else had this trouble ? Sometimes I feel that my head has turned to mush or something. I think too much work and not enough play has messed with my brain. :confused: Anyway, here goes This passage is taken from Mark Twain's "the Adventures of Huckleberry Finn" I hope it's not too tricky... It didn't take me too long to make up my mind that these liars warn't no kings nor dukes, at all, but just low-down humbugs and frauds. But I never said nothing, never let on; kept it to myself; it's the best way; then you don't have no quarrels, and don't get into no trouble. If they wanted us to call them kings and dukes, I hadn't no objections, 'long as it would keep peace in the family; and it wan't no use to tell Jim, so i didn't tell him. if I never learnt nothing else out of pap, I learnt that the best way to get along with this kind of people is to let them have their own way. Good luck :D Regards Dark Eyes

I nearly missed your clue here Dark Eyes. Iwas looking to Huck Finn for inspiration recently. I think it could be 5/Swords. (Best to admit defeat)

Two of Swords? Keeping the balance, keeping the peace, despite the disputes.

Hi Gloria, :( Not the one I was thinking of Gloria, but I had considered that one quite seriously until another one felt better to me. You are actually quite close for the first guess. I love the way the story is written, there would be so many opportunities for tarot card meanings but they are so subtle that I had a darned of a job to find one. Anyway, Try again please.

Yes Dead Star, You are absolutely correct... Well Done ! After all that searching for a real tricky one and ... :( Guessed in two. Think I need more rest so that I can really stump you all next time huh !! Over to you D.S. awaiting your clues. Regards D. E. :D

Oh no... I was hoping I was wrong! Haha....I also have a hard time finding quotes Dark Eyes! But I'll get right on it, I'm sure I can find something :) Your quote was not very easy either, Dark Eyes. I just had this odd little feeling and went with my gut on it. You just never know with these games, sometimes the most obvious quote goes unsolved for pages :D
