If a seer who claims to see the future comes to deliver a warning, execute him where he stands. If he could truly see the future, he would have seen that coming.

>seer doesn't warn you
>fate comes knocking anyways
What even was your plan?
Seer comes to warn you.
Immediately execute him via some method that easy to circumvent. Like death by drowning in 8ft deep water. If the als seer manages to bring a snorkel or really long straw. He checks out.
How gruesome of you. To kill a man who is so generous he would come to warn you even though he knew he'd be killed.
The seer gave their own life in order to pass on that message so it must be important and by executing them all you've proven is the severity of the situation
That's not how it works, shit is usually somewhat vague and not specific to that degree as well as often it being a point the seer can't actually see their own fate.
> The seer has a vision about a specific thing and he decide to warn you.
> But before he can, a second seer arrive at the seer to deliver a warning...
If the seer decides to task relaying the message to a messenger in anticipation that he would be killed if he arrived instead, only knowledge that he is aware of besides you because he's a seer, then do you kill the innocent messenger who is unaware of this death sentence out of principle?
If I saw a car barreling at us full speed, but before I could point it out to you you shot me point blank, does it matter that I wasn't able to get the message across?
What if he also saw his death, but his warning was so dire he was willing to give his life for it?
Ok, uncle Joe
>The last thought in the seers head is "maybe they deserve it"
What makes you think he didn't?
>Try to kill seer who wants to warn you
>He passes your silly test but is pissed and doesn't warn you
>Become paranoid and put in motion the cause of your own doom
>Seer sees that you will be assassinated
>Seer also sees that you're going to try and kill him
>Despite having magical visions, they are otherwise a normal man, and cannot kill 20 castle guards alone
>Decides they ultimately can't warn you, even if they tried
>You are assassinated
He could have send a letter.
> Defy fate with the postal service!
>dear sir:
>vision upon vision confirms your gruesome doom at the hands of a vile lich who will steal your visage and lead your people into evil
>to prevent this fate, you need only send untraceable gems worth 10,000 gold coins to the point specified on the map included...
>"...oh, grand," your exasperated steward whinges, flitting the scroll onto a pile that threatens to spill off the table. "Do these Nigerian princes ever take a day off?"
I CAN SEE THE FUTURE!!!
