Why panic blindly about what may happen in the future, when you can read the prophecy and proceed to do a fully-informed panic about what will happen in the future?
Oracle: It’s lovely seeing your work. All that wonderful illumination. I just reveal what may come to pass, but this is art!
Prophet: No. I’ve come to learn that people are experts at self-deception, and Chosen Ones are no exception. You have to be blunter than the striking face of a maul designed to shatter siege golems, or your subjects will immediately creatively reinterpret your instructions to mean what they want to see, perusing their own direction directly into the jaws of ruin.
Oracle: Oh. So that’s why you’re a renowned children’s book illustrator.
A woman with dreads in a dress, or someone sleeping naked in a bed? Only fate will tell.
I wonder if the prophecy ends up shipping any of the characters together or gives away romance spoilers. Imagine seeing yourself as a parent to unborn children or similar ‘happily ever after’ scenarios.
Right now I'm gearing up for Rose City Comic Con in a few weeks, and I also got something SUPER SPECIAL in the mail along with all the new merch for the con. My prototype Deck of Many Things arrived finally, which means I can start doing the photography and getting the backerkit set up to actually make it a reality! Super excited, it looks fantastic and I'll be showing it off soon! It has genuinely taken multiple years now to finish all the art and get the prototype in my hands and I could not be more excited.

Laurel
Fully Informed Panic seems like a much better plan, I agree.
Schattensturm
They trust way too much into a prophecy of dubious origin 🙁
Laurel
But why have protagonists if they’re not gonna make poor choices sometimes?

Actors sitting in the green room, having nothing better to do while waiting for their cue than reading The Script™.
Laurel
The question is whether or not the script is even the correct one for the next few scenes!

I think even if you are extremely unsubtle, there are still people who will willfully misinterpret, sadly…
Merchant of Pain
Prophet: DO AS I SAY, NOT AS YOU DAYDREAM!!!
Oracle: E… easy there partner…
Laurel
Such is the unfortunate existence of oracles…
Kammon
Will they read in the prophecy about them reading about themselves in the prophecy?
Laurel
It’s certainly a terrifying possibility. Looking into infinity like that is not for the faint of heart!

Oh man, that would leave a lot of problems in its wake. Being told that you’re ‘going’ to fall in love with someone is a potential mindfuck.
