El's Random Ruminations

Prophecies and Visions

Prophecies and visions - how I hate you let me count the ways.

I mean we all know how that shit went with Anakin and Harry! Somebody had a vision and Anakin's whole life was well and truly fucked! And where there is a vision you bet there'll be a prophecy! Dad looked particularly nervous and guilty when Lord Argolas and Lady Issamaris gave them the news. I will bet my last platinum Draycon that there's a prophecy!

Fuck.

So I don't actually remember the details of my vision. Thank the Goddess for that! Apparently it was a play by play of how Lord Ozeilios (Lord Talos' son) and Lord Lehrondhir (Lord Argolas' father) died on the day of the cataclysm.

Yeah, no thank you.

This world has some crazy crap going on in it already. I don't need that trauma. My Aunt executed some human traffickers from Tarmack. They kidnapped some kids from the Flower district (that's where the brothels are) and thought they would get away with it. My Aunt was having none of that! She executed them in front of the guy who brought back the bodies of the children that were taken. He hoped he could bargain for their release with the return of the bodies.

Well my Aunt thought their "gesture of good faith" was absolute garbage. She executed the prisoners. Then killed the ambassador's guards when they tried to rescue the prisoners. She left only the ambassador alive to go back and tell the Tarmackian Emperor and his Empress that Larisch don't play those games.

In Tarmack, the country to the northeast of Larisch, slavery is legal. But it is also legal to kill your slaves in goddess awful experiments apparently. That's what happened to those poor kids. My Aunt sent her message loud and clear!

I don't know about this world...
