Book 13 Page 34

 

The power of predictions

 

The judge pronounces; “on the last day of the month, you will be executed.”

The doctor pronounces; “by the end of the year, you will be dead.”

Both events had similarities, they both;

 

‘Pronounced,’

Implied ‘your ganna,’

and operated from a position of;

 

‘By the power invested in me.’
