The High Oracle sat in his meditation hall, reading through some scrolls he intended to deliver to the Emperor, he had spent the night meditating on a solution to the famine and the Creator had showed him the light.
Now, the High Oracle had begun plans to lead a ritual to seek for the rains and pray for fertile grounds and a bountiful harvest in the west where the famines raged.
He had already informed the Emperor of his intent and received approval to begin preparations for the ritual, the famine was a great concern for Emperor Vaeros and so the high oracle was paying extra attention to everything.
He handled all the detail personally as he could not entrust it to anyone else, this was the only way he could shoulder the burdens of Emperor Vaeros who was like a son to him.
The high oracle had watched Emperor Vaeros grow and so he cherished the young prince long before he became Emperor.
