The Magician:

What do you want? Why do you want? Why is the wanting the first thing on your mind? Who are you? Why are you who you are?

Jjezreth only brushes across the surface of The Magician's mind and quickly recoils from the ambition it finds within. No, no, no, no! This wouldn't do at all.
“Go away,” Jjezreth tells her, “go away! I don't want to see any more of you.”

The High Priestess:

Who are you? Why do you advise others so freely? It isn't bad to help others but the way she does it seems so dull. Especially not when there's so much boiling just below your you...

There was more going on within that was different to without.

Jjezreth didn't recoil as it told her to leave it be, but it was firm in its assertion that what she was would not be for Jjezreth.

-
The Empress:

Oh? … Oh! Something bright! Jjezreth leapt at The Empress, excited to see her mind laid out before it. Happy! Hopeful! These were the things Jjezreth liked! Her mind was a beacon!

But … she wanted a beacon of her own and Jjezreth already knew that it would not be that. Not unless it was by accident.

It liked The Empress but it knew that this would not be a good fit.

-
The Emperor:

Absolutely not. Jjezreth felt a mind that idolized metallic hides and set structures approach and pushed back from it. It didn't want The Emperor to touch it and it made that dislike known.

-
The Hierophant:

“You are … a bit much,” Jjezreth thinks to The Hierophant.

Why so concerned about all that had come before? And so long before instead of the way Mother had come before Jjezreth.

It was a too-complicated equation that Jjezreth had no want to solve.
