The Foretelling Room

[Ithillian Turambar]

***Please be aware that the following thread is just for fun and should not be taken seriously at all.***

A form of prophecy in the Wheel of Time is Foretelling - the Talent that allows its owner to see a part of the future. Unlike Dreamwalking, this Talent is restricted to channellers only. Foretellings are always mystic and usually very hard to comprehend until the event has come to pass, after which the meaning is obvious. Some damane can interpret fortunes on demand; Tuon’s damane Lidya for instance. Their words are as cryptic as true Foretellings.

 

The 'divination' tool used here is the Rainbow Oracle, which uses five cubes that have a different colour on each side. When the cubes are thrown, the colours that are on top face are analysed to provide 'answers'. The particular method used in this instance is the 'one cube method' which has fixed questions and answers.

 

The Oracle guide states this method gives simplified answers that don't include either the cause or the effect of the concern and is rather like finding out the temperature, but not the full weather forecast. You hear that its 72 degrees now, but you don't know what the high or low temperatures will be or if it will rain later. Basically you get a very general answer.

 

If you would like a 'prediction', please select a question from the list below and include it in your post.

 

 

 

 

The room could have been found anywhere in Tar Valon. The smooth interlocking stones were bare and devoid of decoration. The single window was uncovered and let in the pale insubstantial light from the overcast sky outside.

 

She sat and waited. She knew that they would come. Listening intently, she heard footsteps approaching and then stopping outside. She smiled, whoever it was felt uncertain. There was a hesitant intake of breath and the door handle slowly turned. Pausing slightly, they entered the room.

 

She looked up, her pale blue eyes seeming to see far beyond the cold grey walls. She stood and spoke.

 

"I swear by the light that the Foretelling is upon me. It is well that you came. Ask me your question."

*grins and sits at the table*

 

My question is:

 

What is the outlook for my relationship with Michael (my bonded, wolf)

[Daruya]

*Daruya stood in the hallway, hesitant about entering. What would people think about an Ajah Head asking for a foretelling?*

 

Hang what people think! *she muttered under her breath*

 

*Taking a deep breath, she grasped the handle, pushed the door open and stepped inside. Standing before her was a woman with pale blue eyes that seemed to see beyond the cold grey walls of the White Tower*

 

If it pleases the Light, I'd like to know . . . How do I fit in with the career I've chosen?

There is a great deal of love and romance between you and your partner. The aspects are favourable.

The career you've chosen was a logical choice.

[Zosime]

*smirks to herself knowing that this is all in good fun*

 

What will be the outcome of my present venture?

[Moon Sedai]

Because I'm thinking the same question as Zo will fit me:

What will be the outcome of my present venture?

[Ithillian Turambar]

*smirks to herself knowing that this is all in good fun*

 

What will be the outcome of my present venture?

 

Stay on your present path with your present venture. It could lead to success.

Your present venture will lead to truth and enlightenment no matter what the outcome.

If it pleases the Light, are there any upcoming changes in my career?

No changes are needed. Your career has a firm base that is an incentive for growth.

*dusts Shayol Ghul dust from his cloak and Ugg boots, casting his eyeless gaze asunder. He feels various weaves going up in readines, warders around him primed to sell themselves dearly for the work of bringing him down*

 

Relax, people, I'm on a flexi-day.

 

*The crowd eases off, and berf affixes a pair of those fake nerd glasses with Groucho Marx moustaches to his eyeless face*

 

That should do that.

 

*knocks, enters the fortune tellers room*

 

 

 

So, mystic. The DO has me all terrifying villagers and skinning country goats, but I dont think this is my true calling. I want to make people laugh! I want people to be happy! I want people to say, "Oh, there goes berf, he used to skin goats, but now WOW what a funny guy!", and somehow that makes me money.

 

I need a career change, seer. I need to break out! Try something fresh. So with that in mind, I ask...

 

 

What are my prospects for a new relationship?

 

....wait no wrong que-*the smoke machine goes off, drowning out any perceived protest by berf as the mystic googles the answer during the distraction*

[Millon]

Okay, I am definitely game for this. Lets see...

 

I am starting to get into a training program at my current job. I have recently been asked the terrible question (sad that I couldn't answer this as I am 32 years old) what do I want to do when I grow up? Not exactly those words but my boss asked me to think about where I want to go with my career and that I should have this ready for when I see the talent specialists. I have finally set my mind on a direction and I have to be honest. I am TERRIFIED. I just want to know if the Pattern agrees with the direction I have chosen.

 

What is the outlook of my proposed venture?

A meaningful relationship is possible. Be prepared to make a commitment

There are hidden aspects that make a final answer premature. Time will tell whether or not your proposed venture will succeed.

Trust your intuitive reaction. Don't swing on a star unless it's firmly anchored.
