“Namely, precognition is not some rare and extraordinary occurrence that only signals us about catastrophes or major upheavals, nor is it a rare talent possessed by just a few among us. Instead, precognitive dreams are common, probably nightly affairs that go almost entirely unnoticed for a number of interesting reasons. Contrary to a common belief, precognitive dreams are seldom ‘numinous’—they don’t announce themselves. And they are also imperfect—they are very rarely video-quality.”

The Trap of Prescience
What else could be explained in the Witcher if we were to interpret the elven Sages' & Ciri's prophetic abilties in the fashion of Dune?
Dune's take on prescience is that once a future is perceived, it is set in stone.
It's basically the QM measurement rule bringing about wave function collapse into a defined state, which means a particle (I'll grandiosely call it "reality" for the sake of fantasy) loses its superposition (potential to be in all potential states) and takes on a defined property; i.e. one actual reality is chosen from among the many possible ones. Alternatively, the wave function might not collapse at all (many worlds interpretation), with all possible worlds continuing to exist as we, upon observation, simply become part of one of the realities while losing track of others.
In the case of the latter, this poses a question whether it is at all possible for a prescient being to continue "course-correcting." (and what about other observers, equally capable of collapsing the wave function? that would mean other prescients for our literary purposes, as we ignore that actually it could be light, air, etc.)
“This is the awe-inspiring universe of magic: There are no atoms, only waves and motions all around. Here, you discard all belief in barriers to understanding. You put aside understanding itself. This universe cannot be seen, cannot be heard, cannot be detected in any way by fixed perceptions. It is the ultimate void where no preordained screens occur upon which forms may be projected. You have only one awareness here — the screen of the magi: Imagination! Here, you learn what it is to be human. You are a creator of order, of beautiful shapes and systems, an organizer of chaos.”
Everything being an ocean of pure energy potential, the reality we think we know sort of "emerges" based on the conditions and our perception of those conditions. Truly the waves of reality remain in constant fluctuation, while we experience the "concrete" reality—that we label and categorize (imagining a shape for it)—as emerging from those more fundamental levels.
Magic, then, is about the perceiving mind creating the ultimate meaning for what can and cannot be over the raw senses. When an Aen Saevherne, for example, is able to perceive the future accurately they are, in effect, creating it.
"Willfulness might strike in a moment of suspension: what gets in the way of what is on the way."
"The project form of the will is how a body comes to stretch out, in the very process of actively converting a possibility, or at least of feeling itself as involved in this conversion [...] As a possibility comes within reach, a density of experience is acquired."
Los personajes de "Hijos de Dune" son complejos y multifacéticos. A través de Leto y Ghanima Atreides, Herbert explora la carga de la herencia y el peso de las expectativas. La lucha interna de Alia con las voces de sus antepasados añade una capa adicional de conflicto y profundidad psicológica.
