Potioncat:
In every story with a prophecy there is a surprise. It comes true,
but not in the expected way... in spite of efforts to change it
unexpected events lead to its fulfilment. Or when actions are taken
in confidence because of it, the outcome isn't the desired one but
still fit the prophecy.
So I'm waiting for the surprise.
