Your question Where is the money going, and why?

The spread

  1. The figure who set it up Athena Strategy, craft and the intelligence that arrives fully formed. What to avoid: Cleverness used to avoid feeling anything.
  2. The figure in the room Hephaestus The maker, the workshop, and value created by repeated effort. What to avoid: Craft used to avoid being seen.
  3. The figure who leaves Apollo Clarity, distance and the ability to aim properly. What to avoid: Truth delivered without warmth.

The first figure is the one who made the first move, and the reading is careful to note that intention and outcome are different gods.

The centre figure is Hephaestus, describing the inventor, and the specific loneliness of building something nobody asked for.

Then the reading names the exit, and notes that in most versions of this story it was available from the start.
