Water. Helena didn't quite discuss about it with Feenella, because... well, it was pretty much BORING. It wasn't so fascinating as a shiny crystal ball was. Nope. And the images in water were definitely not clear. All blurry.
And... Elaeomancy? "
Isn't... oil used for that?" That... long and complicated name that Helena didn't want to pronounce once again. What did that have to do with water, anyway?
