(no subject)
Characters: Equius Zahhak and anyone interested in the future
Setting: Somewhere in the park, a very secluded, heavily wooded section
Time: Early twilight
Style: Whatever
Status: Open
[The SFC feed flickers on, and for a moment, all it picks up are chaotic lights and shadows, dancing together in a bizarre ballet. Then it all shimmers briefly and focuses, showing a small, fiercely burning campfire in a small clearing. All is silent for a moment, then a hand comes into view, throwing some kind of powder on the fire.]
[The flames crackle, change color, and shoot upwards, towards the thin slice of pearly sky that peeks through the treetops. As the multi-hued flames die down again, vibrant, roiling smoke rises from the fire, forming phantasmagoric shapes and holding them for a fraction of a second, before drifting apart and becoming only smoke once again.]
[Someone clears their throat off-screen, and then a voice, immediately recognizable to those who know him as Equius Zahhak's, speaks quietly.]
I can't see the stars, but that doesn't mean they are not there. The smoke from the fire, from the powders... they are pieces to the puzzle, but it is incomplete. I cannot read this on my own.
I need other eyes, other views of the world. For the image to complete itself, I must gather other pieces, other perspectives.
Will you help me?
[The fire crackles again, its colors shifting, before the video feed cuts off.]
[OOC: As a Harry Potter universe centaur, Equius can interpret the future through the stars or, in this case, through burning things and looking at the smoke. He knows something is going on in Vatheon, but he can't get the whole picture; hence the invitation to come help him. If anyone shows up, he'll "see" their future... his predictions will be accurate but cryptic. If you want him to say anything in particular to your character, just let me know in the subject line.]
