*Once upon a time, the Goddess of Love drew power from the magic generated by money given for lust. Thousands of years later, she was reduced to dancing in a strip club. this was not the sort of dancing of which she was capable; back when temples were built for her, no man who saw her dance could ever desire anything more. After Dream appeared in the club seeking Ishtar's former lover, Destruction, old feelings awoke. when she next took to the stage, she did her true dance. Neither she nor her audience survived the release of her repressed longing. *Source: Back of card
