- For other meanings of "Myth-speaker", please see Myth-speaker (disambiguation).
In the ancient cyclopean method of prophecy known as myth-speaking, a group of seers performs a ritual of soothsaying that detects a source of mythical power, such as an object, event, being, or task that lies in the destiny of a petitioning subject.
These prophecies are often vague and confusingly structured. Fulfilling such a prophecy imbues the subject with a form of divinity, though not immortality, to become a hero-god. A practitioner of myth-speaking is called a myth-speaker.
The myth-speaking ritual is expensive both in materials and effort, which limits their typical issuance to those who have proven worthy and are approved by their community. The ritual is less frequently performed for those already ascended, and the growing powers of such a subject further disrupts the prophecy.
