Fortune teller Madame Destin casts the Tarot for Paladin, with the Wheel of Fortune, the Grim Reaper, and the Drowned Sailor facing Paladin's Chevalier of the Sword. Next day, when Paladin visits his pal Cus Mincus in Temple City, he encounters Danceman, who has disarmed the town, saying that he will kill any gunfighter he sees. Danceman informs Paladin that 'nobody owns life, we just rent it'.
