♕ 5th - video - The Sight
[ there had been a point to her opening this channel. in light of the tragic losses they have suffered here, she has wanted to hold a dinner to celebrate the memory of those who have died and vanished. her mouth moves, but no words are produced. her face becomes deathly pale, her eyes wide and dilated as though in fear. but she has not seen a ghost. no, what she is seeing is something else entirely.
horrible images play before her, which only she might see. the blank look she sports is soon replaced with a one of complete and utter horror. ]
It is hot.. too hot to fight! The Dragon has come from across the sea to wage war against the Boar. Ah, the sun blinds the eyes!
[ she shudders, blinking her unfocused eyes. ] The field is an ocean of blood. I can barely hear over the din of it. The Dragon is swooping in, and his men roar behind him.
His Grace is brave to wear his crown to battle. He is winning.. standing alone in a field of dead, blood coursing over his boots. Ah, it is splendid and horrible!
[ once again, her face becomes a mask of pure terror, scrunching up while her eyes are too-wide for her face. ]
But here comes Lord Stanley! "For Tudor!" he calls. And His Grace has lost his horse. Treason, treason, treason!
[ and that seems to have snapped her out of it. still on camera, elizabeth exposes vulnerability for the first time to those aboard the ship at large, as she cannot control the violent shaking of her form or the tears that appear in her eyes. this is, unsurprisingly, a result of the nightmare she endured within the maze.
she cannot seem to speak for a long, long time. elizabeth covers her mouth with her hands to cover the fact that she is biting her lower lip so hard it is bleeding. and while she is able to finally get a few words out, it is muffled and quavering: ]
Forgive me.
[ she then abruptly ends the broadcast. ]

I have seen and helped my mother influence the weather. If we wish it to rain, we can create a deluge that lasts for days, or a terrible storm. There was a rumour that she created the mist which helped conceal my father's army at Barnet, which i believe to be true.
Beyond that, I know not. My grandmother, from what I understand was much more well-versed in this than either of us.
( she is not going to mention hexing her own son. or anyone, for that matter. )

[ ...now that's impressive. ]
Storm creating and seeing the future. That's more than most people can say. Have you ever tried to control the visions like you can with the weather?

( said with a wry sort of dryness. )
My mother has also mentioned divination, but I have never done such a thing myself. I.. have been trying, with the help of the lady Galadriel. It has proven a mighty task.

[ lydia shouldn't make the comment and yet. ]
Divination— what exactly would that entail for you. Or your mother, since you're trying to learn and the way you worded that it sounds like she can actually do it.

( ah, so she's caught that. )
She can and has influenced the course of things to work in her favour. As a child, I often sat with her and my grandmother. Perhaps they thought I might not understand.
But the meaning was clear enough. My mother did not simply predict certain events, but also caused them to occur.

[ a pause. ]
Not to scare you off from doing it or anything.

( somehow. she smiles quietly, with a gentle edge of wryness. )
I understand. It can never do ill to be too careful when life and death are but a knife's length apart.
Thank you, my lady. ( she might not be dissuaded, but certainly quite a lot more wary. )

I'm curious about people with powers making them better on here.
