The Mystical Marbles

marbles

When a mystic faces adversity, they distinguish what is favorable or can act as a lever from what is unfavorable or must remain in the background. They also distinguish what can mutate and generate a transformation. They therefore only see black, gray, white, and bicolored (black and white) or red (like the Red Moon) marbles.

One could therefore replace the dice with a bag of marbles with the correct distribution: 1/6 black marbles for 6s, 2/6 gray marbles for favorable evens, 2/6 white marbles for unfavorable odds, and 1/6 bicolored or red marbles for 1s.

You would need many marbles to prevent "cheating" and avoid reshuffling for every resolution. As a reference, 60 marbles comfortably support up to 10 Bets on one side while keeping ten copies of every possible result.
