[Molly's sitting at a table, covered with purple-red cloth, with a stack of cards in front of him and his swords resting against the edge of the table. Writing is complicated, and this 'recording' thing is so handy.
Anyway-
He claps his hands and gives a little theatrical bow, long hair falling on his shoulders, and little trinkets on his horns giving a little jingle-]
Mollymauk Tealeaf, at your service. It couldn't pass me by that the atmosphere, aside from the gatherings to eat and be merry, is a bit down. So I'm here to cheer you up!
It's simple- a story for a story!
You give me the most interesting or outrageous fact about yourself, and in return, get a free reading of your luck for tomorrow!
Sounds like a fair trade to me, hmm?
I prefer doing this in person, but this will have to do- I learned it can reach a lot of people a lot faster~

He idly plays with the card he pulled out, twirling it between his fingers-]
I have a wizard friend back home, and if I learned anything from him is that you can't get something out of nothing. There always has to be, how do they call it, a component? A trigger?
Especially with living, breathing people. Sure someone made it happen so you have a blank slate to work with, but I don't think you just poofed into existence.
But that's what I personally believe. I could be very wrong too.

...But what was written on Sigma's page? Is it possible that he existed in some form, before being made? He isn't sure if he agrees with Molly on that, but it's not like he has any way to know...
He wonders if Molly would tell him to seek out the Book, if he asked him. That thought makes him feel a little bit ill.
Still, ever-professional, Sigma collects himself, and with a voice that he hopes no longer betrays his emotion, he says- ]
Thank you. That's... a very interesting perspective. I think it was good for me to hear it.

And he'd probably suggest going to take a look at whatever this Book is if he wanted some concrete answers. It's just a book, right?]
You're welcome, my friend. Always happy to help. [And even if he notes the wavering his voice, he doesn't comment on it. He learned to have tact in some scenarios.]
When we meet up, I'll tell you my story- it's one hell of a ride!
no subject
I'll hold you to that! [ Somewhat more confident now, Sigma smiles - and he's a little happy to hear that Molly would like to meet up with him in the future. He can't help but be curious about what tales the tiefling has to share. ]
I'll look forward to seeing you. Well, thank you again.
