[QUOTE="Qik, post: 5917453, member: 6673727"] The gnome shakes his head. [COLOR="Yellow"]"I am not here to help Fate, because Fate has no need of me. It is beyond my meager doings; I simply look and see as the shiftings of the veil allow." "I have less answers than you seem to think I do; as I said, I merely see what I may. And the viewpoint is changing all the time. But still, to look is often worth it."[/COLOR] A small, knowing smile creeps over the gnome's features. [COLOR="Yellow"]"And if you will not ask the questions of me now, you will not ask the questions, for the happenings between now and the time at which you may ask again, if it comes at all, will provide you with whatever answers you may need. I have no answers such as you seek, anyhow. [I]But[/I] - I can give you a tool for how to find them."[/COLOR] Moving to the table, the gnome undoes the cord binding the small covering of the packet Phedilo had handed him. Seating himself, he reaches inside and pulls out a series of thick, ancient-looking cards, each with a unique, spectacularly-detailed image on it. Wordlessly, the gnome shuffles these with blinding speed, then spreads them out on the table, face down. There are a dozen or so cards, and they appear to have been culled together from a variety of sources.

A link of a chain, the others realize. It is in fact wholly unremarkable, especially given the detail of the images on the other cards. The gnome hands it to Audra, his care in handling it clear.
