Your question What is the real question under this one?

The spread

  1. The figure who set it up Artemis Independence, the forest and a life that does not need an audience. What to avoid: Solitude defended past the point of need.
  2. The figure in the room Demeter Nourishment, the harvest and grief that changes the world. What to avoid: Care that becomes control.
  3. The figure who leaves Persephone A descent and a return, and the strange authority gained between them. What to avoid: Staying in a lower place out of habit.

The first role is the messenger, which is the oldest way of saying that a conversation is the whole plot.

At the centre, Demeter: the figure of the return, meaning something comes back and must be recognised rather than resisted.

Then the story turns and the first figure reappears in the third position, meaning the situation resolves the way it began.
