Justice & Reversed Four of Wands…

Justice does not smile.
She sees with hollow eyes, measuring the soul on rusted scales. Her sword does not tremble — it falls.

This is not the pretty justice of polished courts or gentle compromise. No, this is the cold, raw truth, the unforgiving balance that demands a toll.
To do what is right, something must be lost.
A bond. A comfort. A home. A delusion. What once brought you joy now traps you.To do what is right…You must tear it down.
Walk away. Burn it, if you must.

Justice arrives when all illusions are peeled away like skin — and what's left must be judged, no matter how sacred.

She does not care if the cost is high.
She only cares if it is fair. To choose Justice is to choose exile - to cast out the familiar, because it is wrong, even if it is yours. Do what is right… even if it haunts you.

“The sword of justice has no scabbard.”— Antoine de Rivarol
