The prophecies are not literal, Mistress,” OreSeur said. “They’re metaphors – expressions of hope. Or, at least, that is how I have always seen them. Perhaps your Terris prophecies are the same? Expressions of a belief that if the people were in danger, their gods would send a Hero to protect them? In this case, the vagueness would be intentional – and rational. The prophecies were never meant to mean something specific, but more to speak of a general feeling. A general hope.
