To be frank, I'm not entirely sure.Â
At this point I'm throwing out ideas and brainstorming, but there are a lot more creative people out there than myself and would have a better lore-point to what or how that would fit in.Â
Considering Althyk is tied to space it goes on to astronomers and possibly astrologers as an offshoot.
Some people might interpret that to be some kind of personal horoscope as far as changes and what time will bring; others can push it to education in health, thoughts, elements (even though his key element is earth). I'm not entirely up on the lore, but the heavens are used to predict things in Coerthas so the theme passes down.
Why not Fortune-Telling? That would make for a great post-show RP experience.
I know a lot of people, myself included, who have done all sorts of lore-aligned charts for fortune-telling / card-reading / astrological predictions in several games. This seems to be potentially ideal, especially since we are all supposed to be adventures blessed of Hydalaen, anyway...
