The Macbeth Prophecy
“Nor, on subsequent visits, have we been able to establish any coherent links with them and such messages as we receive are garbled; wild imagery and disconnected ramblings. Perhaps, as Eve feared, our first visit had unhinged them further, or perhaps the power they contribute has diminished them in some way. It may even be that, having established the longed-for contact, they are content to let lucidity slip away again; a kind of heathen “Nunc dimittis”.
For myself, I no longer seem to have... any discrimination in the way I use my influence, satisfying passing whims rather than adhering to the “grand design” with which I’d originally set out. Once, I clamped a boy’s mind shut during an important test, because I’d overheard him making a snide remark about me. I didn’t even realize what I’d done till I found him in tears afterwards.
Philip is finding the same thing, but with more serious consequences. One afternoon I came back from school to find him with a glass of whisky in his hand.MoreLess
