Table of Time

The Table of Time is a powerful artifact and the centerpiece of the Mages that is housed inside the Room Within. It is a major source of Methuselah's knowledge and is only accessible by him. It has the ability to tell him the future in a manner similar to that of the Oracle of Delphi.
==Functions and uses==
The Table of Time acts as a crystal ball or a fortuneteller. Communicating to Methuselah by means of a special light pattern or sequence in the space-time continuum. The Table can also think for itself at certain times. For instance, it recognized that Logan was a new person and so made room for a new seat.
==Appearance==
The Table of Time looks like a normal, rounded, one-legged table. Though it has an area inside the Table that sinks in for about three inches. Here, a simulation of what looks like a miniature galaxy that glows in blue and orange. It is known that this is a visualization of time itself.
==History==
===Formation===
Some time after the Big Bang, Methuselah infused a portion of his Lifeforce with the essence of Time; turning it into the Table of Time. It soon gained the ability to act on its own and deliver prophetic messages only decipherable by Methuselah.
===First Oracle===
Years later in 712 CE, the First Oracle was spoken and deciphered by Methuselah. It predicated that one of the Mages would begin to act irrationally and soon betray the rest of them.
It soon turned out that Atori was the prophesized traitor and was banished to the Afterlife.
===Second Oracle===
Anhkor's Awakening and return to Yggdrasil in 1916 and 1928 were soon followed by a Second Oracle. The original reading of which was attended by Mellae; who immediately rushed home to warn her mothers and experienced minor post-traumatic stress for some time afterwards.
The Second Oracle predicted that Death would win over Life; that Anhkor would be horribly injured -- or otherwise killed -- by Atori in some way.
It soon became true when, in 1951, Anhkor was fatally wounded by Atori and essentially killed by him. Although she willingly sacrificed her remaining Lifeforce to Drasilia upon realizing that she would carry on as the Life Mage.
===Third Oracle===
