"Your past. Your whole life. Everything that has transpired in your lifetime, past and present, shows itself to me like shining pieces of gold on plain ground."
Her serene smile sunk into my heart. She was beautiful. Perfect. Many men would kill to have her. It's such a waste choosing her as the oracle when she could have had a better life than predicting the future all her life. Are all oracles like her? She is the 17th descendant of a family with a long line of oracles that aided mankind for centuries.
"Indeed. One has failed though, trenching onto the dark path." She said in a low tone while bowing her head a little. "And yes... you are again correct. Another is yet to take the same road as the prophecy told by the oracle before me."
The oracle moved forward, closing the distance between us. Sunshine obviously saw my confused expression. How did she know what I was thinking? Then it hit me. My thoughts! I cleared my throat hoping to disrupt whatever mind-reading sorcery she was doing.
Her bright eyes locked with mine, her soothing smile giving me comfort against my weariness from our recent clash with Klat's minions.
"I... " The words I intend to say were cut off as she held my hands tightly as we were at face length.
"NOTHING is secret."
