“A visiting goblin taught me the basics of shamanism, and I knew at once that it could be combined with the power of the mind. After years of experimentation, I am proud to say that it works! I can read the future! Of course, I can only read the very near future right now... but some day I shall be able to auger years into the future
— Ashk
Ashk is a Rakshasa soothsayer and merchant in Rahu. With appropriate favor, and unless you're already under the effect of one of the soothsaying recipes, he will offer the following dialogue.
“Ah, Player, it's good to see you again! Do you need your fortune read? For you, it's free.
- I would like you to tell me my future.
For you, my friend, there is no charge. Stand perfectly still! Are you ready?
- I'm ready!
(Ashk begins to read your future)
There you have it! If you wish for me to read your future again, come back another day.
- Thanks!
Location
- Rahu
- Near the gate coming from the Ilmari Desert. On the left side as you enter the city.

Hang Outs
Let Ashk evaluate your animal body for potential soothsaying knowledge (5h) [Comfortable] Hint
“I hope that wasn't too embarrassing. I've collected all of your measurements. Assuming you're an average specimen of your species, it's safe to say that your kind is quite valuable for augury! Of course, you'd have to die first. Ha ha ha! Sorry. That was in poor taste. I have no intention of killing you! I might buy your corpse after you die, but that's it! Um, here, take these baubles. They're shiny, aren't they? Off you go now!

Help Ashk prepare animal guts for soothsaying (3h)
“Is that the bucket of spleens? Good. I keep them separate. In your basic soothsaying, spleens are just like any other organ. But in my most advanced augury techniques, spleens are quite valuable! Thank you for everything. Here, keep one!

“It worked! The long-form augury allowed me to choose a very specific future for you. I chose to make you more fleet of foot in the near future.
This technique could be huge! Of course, since it took eight hours of you standing perfectly still while I used a dozen chickens' worth of entrails, it's not really a very practical business practice tool... but still, knowledge is always good.
Be awkwardly intimate with Ashk (4h) [Soulmates] Hint

Soothsaying Training
At Close Friends, Ashk will offer you training in Augury recipes if you are able to defeat a creature for him, the Eye of Fate.
“In the desert near Rahu, look for a giant skull embedded in the face of a cliff. Ignore the skull and look for a large staff in the sand near the base of the cliff. Stand near the staff and say something like, "I'm going to start soothsaying now!" That should get the eye to emerge. Be ready! It is no ordinary foe. You will likely need help. Slay the creature and you shall have my utmost appreciation.
Once the summoned creature is defeated, Ashk will offer training of Augury recipes in his Training menu. Learning Augury requires Meditation 50 or Shamanic Infusion 50.
Perceive Spawn Premonitions: the 2s requires Meditation 25 or Shamanic Infusion 25, while 4s requires Meditation 60 or Shamanic Infusion 60. (Favor lv will need confirmation)

Conversations
“I read the future from different body parts depending on what seems most important at the time. Bones help augur safety, while a nice heart can help foresee whether you will find great treasures. A horn can ensure that you learn more from your lessons... and so forth.
