-Normally, your Origin will choose when to speak with you, but it is possible for you to entreat your Origin for knowledge of the future.  You spend one minute in meditation upon a course of action.  The Director will then secretly roll 2d10, with a -2 penalty for every time you have used this power in the last 24 hours.
+While your Origin typically chooses when to speak with you, it is possible for you to seek its guidance on the future. By meditating on a course of action for one minute, you can entreat your Origin for insight into the consequences of your decisions. The Director will secretly roll 2d10, applying a -2 penalty for each time this power has been used in the past 24 hours.
-  * **18 or more**:  You learn whether the course of action will result in good results or bad, and to what degree (great or lesser), and your Origin also provides you with one (typically cryptic) hint that will help you if you choose to pursue that course of action.
-  * **14-17**:  You learn whether the course of action will result in good results or bad, and to what degree (great or lesser).
+  * **18 or more**:  You learn whether the course of action will lead to good or bad results, and the degree (great or lesser). Your Origin also provides a cryptic hint to aid you in your decision.

+  * **5-8**:  You receive no helpful answer. Your Origin may refuse to answer, or offer a vague and ambiguous response that is obviously unhelpful.
   * **4 or less**:  Your Origin is irritated with you, and //lies// about the results.  Treat this as **14-17** above, save that if the result would be good, your Origin tells you it is bad, and vice versa.
