The Prophecies....

 
Largely unspoken, the prophecies that foretell the coming of the Chosen Ones originate from two separate sources. The first, and oldest, was spoken by the sphinx oracle Illeana before the end of worlds.  Her words survived the end and the birth of a new world, describing the ties between old and future. 
 
Much of the prophecy has been lost, but pieces remain, scattered throughout the realms, passed down by the patron species and kept alive by the Governors and Bransom Capomagi.  Rita is the only member of the Chosen who holds all of the pieces, regarding it as an outdated, manipulative tool of those who believe in fate as opposed to free will. She therefore sees no reason to share the full oracle with the others, who, in their 21st Century mindset, don't give it a lot of credence either. 
 
This is what remains...

 

"Darkness once caged confused our consequences

When six made the choice between right and wrong

But Era’s end, will purge the resistance 

New souls will possess one chance to move on

Six must halt the Darkness no longer caged

Before new governors right Prophet's wrong

One clan must rise and cull its own depraved

The Chosen will try to salvage the Queen

Worlds will join if the Feral Magic is waived

The original choice must be redeemed

While penance will undo past offenses

Can they do what’s right and wipe the wrong clean?

An end to blindness, no more excuses

Darkness caged once confused our consequences"

 

The second, younger oracle was foretold by the Seer's Flock, subjects of the Cairn Queen. These exclusive cairn women are gifted with shadow sight--uncertain and subjective glimpses of the future.  They are tasked with pre-seeking future Cairn children and the time and place of their inevitable emergence in Ariatless. It was this attempt to predict Adrianne Natalie's ascendance that spawned the Cairn prophecy detailing each of the Chosen and their individual journeys.

Future Healer is made

To undo the damage

But bear a cruel passage

A Weaver is descent

Plagued by voices ceaseless

And a Darkness heedless

From the oldest weakness

 

Long before the World’s end

Jarath’s Ring awaited

The Heiress to ascend

The Vessel will be bred

To end the rivalry

And see with certainty
