Ooo. Perhaps you were wrong to *assume* it, but I like it as a
theory nonetheless.
I can see that the soul of a great seer might find herself
inclined to "posess" her great-great-granddaughter in order to pass
along a prophecy of great import to a time that occurs significantly
after her own.
As for the voice being deep and raspy, I wouldn't think that was
caused by anything other than the fact of one entity forcing
vocalization through another entitiy's vocal chords.
