Summary: It was customary for a prophet to be present at the birth of a child.

Prophecies, like the people they belonged to, often shared similar qualities but were unique in some way or another. Of course, not everyone was meant to slay dragons and rescue princesses. The majority of prophecies depicted an average life with an average amount of joy and hardship. Rarely did a find themselves at a loss for how to tell a mother that her child would suffer.

“My sincerest apologies, Naomi. I regret to announce that Castiel will suffer great hardships in the later part of his life. Beyond that, I do not know what will become of him.”

-------

When the Oracle Dean goes missing, Castiel is chosen to bring him back. But embarking on such a quest almost certainly means death, especially with his prophecy clouded by a menacing darkness. Besides, what role could Castiel, a mere warrior, play in the life of a powerful Oracle such as Dean?
