First, in the ritual house basement:

A familiar presence appears before you as you are filled with a feeling that would indicate that you have met this being before. Whoever, or whatever this is, points at you as [visions] overtake your mind's eye as several images overlap on each other, making it difficult to understand what is being shown.

You say, 'visions'

A familiar presence shows you the images of a great temple being destroyed by a huge storm flash into your mind. Thousands dying in a great catastrophe that happened long ago. A raging storm crushing the denizens of the outpost. The vision shifts to the very basement you are in, many akhevans huddled together trying to survive the catastrophe as the winds whip outside of the building. A group of four akhevans are [chanting] over the divination table that is in the corner of the basement.

You say, 'What are they chanting?'

A familiar presence shows you a vision of a group of scholars around the table. The chanting becomes deafening as you see the walls start to crumble around the survivors. For a brief moment in the chaos, you witness that the group was, for a moment, successful with their incantation. It appeared to be a protection spell to try and buy time for the survivors, but it too ultimately failed. The last thing you see is the divination table covered in blood and gore, yet intact. It appears that the table before you at this moment is the very same table that the akhevans attempted their magics on. Return to Torgarath Rulour Thox with your findings.

Then at the scrying pool:

A familiar presence appears again after pouring the concoction into the waters, the ripples in the water show several different images happening at the same time within the ripples.One vision you think you may have seen was yourself, but from many different angles, as if many eyes have been watching you this entire time. A whisper can be heard from the back of your mind. You feel a chill across your spine as you hear the words, 'Thhhhhaaaannnnk Yyoooouuuuu' said from within your head.

Torgarath Rulour Thox gives us some insight about how familiar she is:

Torgarath Rulour Thox says, 'The being that presented itself to us appears to be an akhevan priestess named Akelha`Ra. She was once a being of great power here, but she was destroyed and made an example of by Atenha`Ra. These two beings were once one, but one was created as a reflection of the other, a shadow if you will.
