Here's the eighteenth card in the "Isekai Tarot Card Deck" project I am developing - The High Priestess!

Yui-MHCP001, also known as Yui, is an artificial intelligence mental health counseling program from the show "Sword Art Online". Once the VRMMO became a death game, her programming was rewritten to forbid her from interacting with the characters; a limitation she grew to overcome.

The High Priestess is a card of mystery, stillness and passivity. This card suggests that it is time to retreat and reflect upon the situation and trust your inner instincts to guide you through it. It, moreover, represents hidden talents, intuition, mystery, and spiritual insight.

Throughout Sword Art Online, Yui functions as a intuitive, guiding voice for the two main characters, offering them insight into the game's infrastructure and encouraging them to pursue the best course of action. Her hidden talents reveal themselves when she unlocks "Gamemaster capabilities", saving those who are close to her. Like the High Priestess who has access to the spiritual meaning of the Torah, Yui's access to the code of the VR-universe makes her a close analog of the themes of the card.

I have an outline of the characters I will be assigning to each Major Arcana, though I would love to hear any suggestions for characters to include.
