Akibel Mowar is on his way home from the blacksmith's when he spots it. People are shrieking and fleeing from it, which seems reasonable, as it's a fuckoff huge snake with a mirror for a face. A big mirror.
Kib can't so much flee. He can shriek - he can lurch in the direction of the nearest house and try the door - it's locked. He can amble briskly...
He can break into a run when the snake gains on him and fall flat on his face.
And he can get eaten up.
And it's too bright too bright too bright and he flings his arm over his eyes.

Oh, good point. ...But it would in the general case? That's interesting. Uh, I know enough Quenya to assemble "I swear I said the truth today", if you need a more limited time frame or something I will need to look stuff up.
One doesn't exactly experiment with them. Intent - of the speaker and as understood by the listener - matter.

Thennnn my Quenya is not actually good enough, that's not airtight and if I'm going to go try to tell Maitimo that he cuts his way through swaths of people for unclear reasons I'd like to have it airtight.
I understand. You could ask someone you trust to help you settle on one, and then come find me for it?
Good skill, Akibel. I hope it ends up being a blessing that I've extended your life enough you'll see this all play out.
He does stab a lot of people.
Findekáno's death I can't see, though I am very confident he's dead at the time of these events.

What a frustrating way to dispense prophecy this is. Are you supposed to be able to do anything with them or are they for, what, entertainment purposes?

Well, that's no good. It'll wait. Kib makes a note about everything he saw.
Kib goes to bed on time for once.
