Crystal Ball

 

Gazing through the crystal ball,
Time passes on me as I wait for an answer,
For it is the need of thy hour,
Concentration begins to fail me,
but gathering power from all the sources possible,
I continue on.

Blue light begins to flash through the innermost layers.
Trying to decipher the message,
I race it through my mind,
And save it to memory.
The correct path yet fails me
For the occult I have not mastered yet.

As I withdraw my gaze I feel the gaze of the entire room fall on me.
Forcing myself to avert their gaze
I stand foretelling their future of which I am in doubt myself.
Without questioning, they accept the results and file out.
Walking straight upto the king I tell him a blood ritual is needed
as my thoughts leave me in want of a higher power.
