Introducing Madame Fortuna
Born beneath an April moon in 1872, Wilhelmina Estelle Harrington was destined not for the idle comforts of Newport society but for something far older, far more profound—something woven into the fabric of fate itself.
About us
The Oracle of Newport
Raised among the gilded mansions of Rhode Island’s elite, she was the only daughter of Reginald Harrington III, a ruthless shipping magnate, and Genevieve Ashworth Harrington, a celebrated socialite. From the moment she could speak, Wilhelmina was expected to walk the delicate path laid out for her—one of refinement, obedience, and strategic marriage. But the young heiress was never one to follow a script. Even as a child, she was different.
She saw patterns where others saw only chance—the way the wind carried messages through the trees, the hidden meanings in spilled wine, the unspoken words stitched between glances at grand galas. Her dreams whispered secrets of things yet to come. At first, her family dismissed her peculiar insights as childish whimsy, but when her predictions proved true again and again, they grew uneasy.
Her French governess, Madame Lefèvre, recognized the gift for what it was. Late at night, by candlelight, she spoke to Wilhelmina of the unseen world, of ancient knowledge locked within symbols, of the power of the Tarot and the stars.
By the time she turned eighteen, Wilhelmina had grown into a striking and fiercely independent young woman, already infamous for her stubborn defiance of convention. Her parents attempted to tether her to their world, arranging a marriage to the cold and calculating son of a railroad tycoon. But on the eve of her engagement, Wilhelmina did something no woman of her status had ever dared: she vanished.
Paris & The Call of the Cards
In 1890, dreaming of seeing the City of Light that Madame Lefèvre so eloquently described in her bedtime stories, she fled to Paris, officially to study art—though her true purpose lay elsewhere.
Among the bohemian enclaves of Montmartre, she found her secret initiation. There, in a dimly lit café filled with absinthe, smoke, and whispers, she met Lucien Devereaux, a charismatic French mystic who had abandoned his aristocratic
birthright to walk the path of the occult.
