Miss Temerita Reid,

June 16th

It's a combination: the crystal's reflective policies operate much like a mirror would, and can provoke the Inner Eye in that way. The other facet of the crystal ball, the swirling mist within - well, I've always believed that attempts to see what the mist looks like can stimulate real predictions. So, in short - yes. The fog could be irritating your Inner Eye as it - and you - try to See. That would also back up another theory of mine; I do not believe that the fog can disrupt Sight, as it does not seem to have an impact on physiological changes, and Seeing is at least somewhat inherent to the body.

I have not been to the fog and cannot confirm that it would have the same effect on myself. I do hope you've been well otherwise. How is your family? Never worry about bothering me; you know that I am not up to much.

Kind Regards,
