Gases from beneath.

Prophet inhales.

Visions.
My first six word story.

#SixWordStories' Word Prompt: Prophet

Fun Fact: For my geochemistry class I did a presentation on a geomythology paper that proposed that the Oracle of Delphi's visions came from inhaling gases that were leaking up to the surface through cracks in the rocks. After all their experiments looking for proof for their hypothesis the paper concluded that there was no proof that they could find but it still could have happened. It was a fun paper and I totally would have taken a geomythology class if my school had one. It sounds like it would be fun.

I would have thought that, with the first line being as it is, this would be quite negative and stuff, but it's actually pretty mystical and... yeah, I like the direction in that sense.

I find it interesting how it goes from three words, to two words, to one word.... it's as if reality is dissolving and visions are about to take place and stuff, if that makes sense.

Brilliant story! I like how you've set it all out and I find the phrasing to be quite cool too. :D
