My seer just told me of this omen he saw in the moon. Should I be worried or should I get rid of the seer? "When the Moon fully slips into Earth's shadow, a king shall die."
Description: Clay tablet from Old Babylonia with lunar-eclipse omens inscribed on it in cuneiform.
Stop worrying with this primitive nonsense. Listen to the science. Everyone knows that when the moon turns dark, it's just the giant sea beast rising out of the ocean and breathing his great smokey breath over the moon goddess.
Your highness, I am a seer myself and I have to tell you that moon-seers are notorious frauds among our distinguished profession. I can predict events with 5% more accuracy and 15% more positivity than this fool (for only 10% more silver per moon, three first moons offered if you sign now) by reading the flow of blood from sacrificed moon-seers.
This omen is really only a large cloud and your reign will be prosperous for ever and your beard will never fall and did I mention everybody loves your large hat?
