Gallagher remains quiet for a moment. Despite his mistrust of Sienar and his motives, Gallagher feels he will burst if he does not dissipate his worry by confiding in another the contents of his visions.
"I have dreamed and seen fragmented images," Gallagher says, closing his eyes as if it would help him recall what he has seen. "Very little of it is distinct. Myself in the position to strike down a defenseless foe, atop this Basilica. A woman with white hair of terrible power, inquiring to another girl in black about what she sees of the future. Something about a settlement at a volcano, and a tomb there."
Gallagher frowns as he recalls the stranger part of his vision.
"A group looking for a man in a desert of sharp rocks. Incomprehensible words that alarmed me."
Gallagher's eyes snap open and upward, locking on Sienar's face.
"I saw the past. I saw you! My sister's murderer and now my keeper. Defiler of my family's household and their happiness."
Gallagher slowly shifts his eyes downwards and closes them again, containing his strong feelings on the matter of his sister.
"I saw my friends as assassins, covered in the blood of billions. I cannot allow them to apprehend you or the famine will wipe them out. All of the billions that you, by some twisted fate, intend to save."
"The Lady seems powerful," Gallagher says, frowning. "My vision portrayed her vaguely as having the ability to kill with a word, turn minds inwards upon themselves in self-destruction. She... she wants to watch the Galaxy burn and has the power to do so. I wouldn't know anything more. It is the first time I have seen her."
Hmm... actually you might have some idea about what that is, Gallagher. In your studies of the Force, as regarding to your own talent, which was a natural one... millions of years ago, you see, the rate of Force sensitives was no different to what it was now, but there was no formal training for it. People had to learn it the hard way, and many beliefs formed around the idea in primitive times.
That seems like one of them. Some Force Sensitivesd would unknowingly integrate their practices with other superstitions. In this case, the rune caster predicts the future or scans the present. She then casts her runes upon the ground andreads them according to the traditions of her people, which need not have any internal logic whatsoever- the point is that the caster subconsciously throws the runes so that they will land in such a way that is in fact accurately predicting the future as revealed to her by the Force. It's basically just a way of channelling your powers.

I am sure if Gallagher cast runes they would end up completely jumbled or maybe just combust...Any specific cultures that Gallagher may know about in regards to this?
In any case...
"The women I saw can use the Force," Gallagher says to Sienar.
"Of course, and how do they use it?"
