[Moran is extremely aware that his power can and will look useless to many. It is only in very specific circumstances that it manages to be immediately reliable. More often than not, it serves as an ominous kind of foreshadowing.]
I am sorry that I cannot be more precise. I only saw some bits of a battle. All I can say, with absolute certainty, is that it will come to pass. All of my visions come to pass, no matter what.

He takes in the glare, shakes it off as well as the words, and the attempts at salvaging what the other man probably saw as a slip of the tongue, albeit a revealing one. All of a sudden, he looks a little tired, but in a more bone-deep, weary way than his mid-twenties should bring.]
Seeing the future is not a blessing, Master Lan. It's a curse. At certain times, it will help. At others, it will simply outline your own lack of power in changing any of it. There are too many parameters in making any single event happen.
It helps in combat, every once in a while. For the rest it allows me to make slightly better informed decisions about the future of my country, and even then, I can never be certain that I am making the right choices.
I apologize for not being more useful at this time. And I cannot guarantee I will be more useful later on, at least with this. Thankfully, I have other talents than this.
