[I used to get lots of prophecies. Almost filled the time. All ones that came true before anyone spoke to me, of course.]

[Did I really think of talking to you first?]

[If someone asks me if you've spoken to me, do I have permission to share the answer?]

[Sure.]

[No one has spoken to me who gave me such permission.]

Right then that's all she's getting out of that. Drop. Bounce.

Aaaaaaarghhhh. 

We should probably tell the Valar. They'll probably just react by cutting her off and that's a good thing.

But they might do something else -

Yup, they might, but I think they'd announce what they were doing within a couple of days.

I suppose we can find somebody to check on that if they themselves wouldn't be trying to use precogs.

Doubt it. As far as they're concerned all precogs are really short range.

Okay. Might want to set up a code system so we don't have to tell the precog exactly what they're checking.

Like, we intend to tell the precog something in a month, and then they relay what we would have told them?

Yeah, and 'something' is in cipher.

Sounds good.

I've got a cipher from when I was little and didn't want Alex reading my notes, is there a reason to go more sophisticated than that do you think -

Doubt it, the vast majority of psions can be assumed not to have been befriended by Melkor -

So far.

We should have thought of this sooner, I should think what - habits of mind - would have let us think of this sooner -

And what else are we missing - who else is around who most people cannot talk to, as an object level question -

Eru.

We did actually think of that one before, do you suppose the calculus has changed enough -

- someone else has probably been sufficiently curious -

Fewer people are likely to have heard of Eru in the first place but not that many fewer...

I'm not remotely sure it's a good idea but it'd astonish me if no one has tried talking to our world's god upon learning we have one.
