Auspicious Augury

Dialogue[]

“	<Noble> performs an augury using the gold emblems Beren owned in his days as young Rider. <He/She> says that for the next year, it will be an auspicious time to <communicate knowledge/fight>. People say the ring must act on this knowledge. They also wonder why <Noble> isn't on the ring instead of that <fool/blockhead> <Ring Member>. Deny the validity of <Noble>'s augury. Instruct <Noble> not to touch the emblems without permission. Praise <Noble>'s insight. Suggest that <Noble> will soon join the ring. Nod sagely.	”

If you nod sagely, the people may trust the council to cleverly exploit this good fortune; Mood may rise.

"If we start listening to Sereden we'll never hear the last of his blather." - Hanth
"If this is a true omen, the other sages and I will soon know." - Lhankor Mhy devotee
"Praise for popular <Noble> will aid our own reputations."
