OOTS #1301 - The Discussion Thread

[Peelee]

Oh, we totally do. Sure, Belkar didn't technically say 'all'

No, but the halfling did clearly specify "any of", which carries the explicit evocation that any one of the listed possibilities can be enough to fulfill the given soothsaying.

but the rules of dramatic storytelling clearly would not let a sentence fragment like the Oracle's slip out if it wasn't going to retroactively have a very satisfying ending to it.

And we got a satisfying ending to the fragment when the Oracle said he wasn't buying it either.
