Well, the Oracle is quite possibly a special case. It's not that
looking into the Past and Future is absolutely prohibited, it's that
only the Creator can grant Authority over Time, and he/she/it is
normally unreachable. If the Creator wanted to grant Authority over
Time to an Oracle, he/she/it could do so.
