Well met, Stormy_waters
I don't recall a tome listing all the prophecies, but we do have this particular scroll herein at Candlekeep. It's only a short article but i'm afraid that's all I can place my hands on at the moment.
(Ye would think I would know more on the matter and reel them off from the top of my head, but sadly not  ) |

That's all right, Alaundo, I'm sure you've got a lot on your mind. You can't remember every thing you've said in your long life.

| I don't think the prophecies of Alaundo have ever been detailed, save for a few here and there... |

There was once some effort made on the Mailing List to translate some real-world prophecies into signs and portents that could relate to the Realms, and in particular . . . the sayings of Alaundo the Wise. I don't recall whether anything really became from such a project, but I could check if you like?

I, for one, should appreciate it if you did. |

I'm already on it, as I made the assumption that our own resident Seer would have an interest in this as well . . .

I have a question about Alaundo's prophecies...
Other than the events in the Avatar series, has there been any other novels where his predictions have been used as the main story in novels? |

With the whole uncertainty about whether or not these games and novels truly are part of FR canon, can we assume that the prophecies used are actually part of those once recorded by Alaundo?
