Prophets

"These who can not see, will feel, their hands shall become their eyes, and cursed be he who sees future, for it will consume him." ~Lord Lithunica

I received a major feed back for my “Gods journal of Creations” [link] so I decided to make an whole series of pieces dedicated towards this subject. But instead of drawing diagrams of plants and animal, I decided to focus on more spiritual side. Here I thought of two things, first that blind people literally see the world with their hands. And that do prophets predict the future, or do the mark just one branch of the predictable events… I mean if some one would predict something will it happen because it meant to, or because his words moved people towards curtain perspective, curtain mechanism of events…? Am I making sense..? I hope so, because it sounds clear in my head, and I am pretty sure a few days from now I would look at this and go “what the hell” but until then, enjoy.
Also I would really appreciate if you would not judge this from a religious perspective, please, it has nothing to do with it. I used it because it is a really flexible subject to work with.
Whew, now a bit about the drawing, this is a drawing done from my sketch [link] I really did not want to use the same paper stock, so I tried to create a new one.. but… you will be the judge to tell me if it worked or not. Hopefully there will be more coming soon. Thank you for your time, if you have any questions, or comments feel free to do so.

The Paper which I used for the background belongs to tinder_BLANKED, the file name is giyvin-Latin_law_1_by_tinder_BLANKED. Unfortunately, I can not find that user on Deviant art, so if some one knows where I can find them please send me a not, and I will be more than happy to properly credit them.
Here and there I used some pieces from:

This is probably one of the most thought provoking things I've seen in a long while. This looks like the kind of thing you'd find in - an old monastary, buried under layers of dust. I raelly want to know what those symbols mean. Even if they mean nothing :XD: I love the old paper!

You did actually make sense, about whether the prophecies come to pass because it was supposed to, or because the prophet's words set people in motion. It really makes one question fate and just - everything. I guess it's one of those things we may never really know, hey?

Dude, this piece rocks my world :heart:

Thank you for your comment, I did put alot of thought into it, the words underneath the drawing do mean something they say "These who can not see, will feel, their hands shall become their eyes, and cursed be he who sees future, for it will consume him." I used Dunes font Fremen, because it is the clousest thing I could find that seemed like an anicent wrighting, again thank you I really apreciate your feed back.
