There is a price for this knowledge though, and it's a harsh one. Divining the knowledge saps away part of your life force. Your sense of hope, specifically.

And a tiny number of supplicants loose all hope forever.

But before you decide that "loosing hope for a month" sounds like a reasonable price to pay, realize that without hope, you won't have the will to keep living. You will lie comatose, waiting for death. If someone doesn't feed you, bathe you, and care to your bed sores, you will die. Make preparations accordingly.

If you with to proceed, contact your local sage. He can help you with the rituals. They aren't secret, but they're very complicated and you need to get them right. If you're rich enough, hire an expert ritual master to assist you!
