-- Hmm, what happened to the prophet? If this person managed to orchestrate a series of coincidences that repeatedly thwarted the plans of a powerful sorcerer with the help of an inexperienced farmer, it's quite possible that the main character, or even the main hidden threat of the entire book, was actually the prophet, whose power surpassed the sorcerer's abilities, and not necessarily for the better, perhaps even to plunge the kingdom into an even greater crisis...

That's right, the wise man who predicted all of this. Maybe this whole story is just propaganda, and the old sorcerer wasn't so bad after all?
