Go Here to see what this is about. Elise ([info]elisem ) made the amazing pendant and Jo ([info]papersky ) made the wonderful first poem and the meme.


-------------------------------------
What I know of Oracles

1. They see things.  Yes.  Everyone knows this, even me.
2. They see through the lens of you.  The visions have no form without the lens. Without me.
3. They fear the things they see. If they are brave, they warn; if not, they leave you be.
4. My Pythia flinched in that long-ago springtime. She could not bear to see.
5. Days later, I understood. Your death had been there all along, shining through the lens of me.
6. I know nothing more of Oracles.  They will not look at me.
