When the Years had carries away Yonath, and Yonath was dead, there was no longer a prophet among men. And still men sought to know. Therefore they said unto Yug: "Be thou our prophet, and know all things, and tell us concerning the wherefore of It All." And Yug said: "I know all things." And men were pleased.
Once I set out seeking to know all things. Now I know one thing only, and soon the Years will carry me away. The path of my seeking, that leadeth to seeking again, must be trodden by very many more, when Yonath is no longer even Yonath. Set not thy foot upon that path. Seek not to know. These be the Words of Yonath.
Man must endure the Days that Are, but the gods have left him his ignorance as a solace. Seek not to know. Thy seeking will weary thee, and thou wilt return much worn, to rest at last about the place from whence thou settest out upon thy seeking. Seek not to know. Even I, Yonath, the oldest prophet, burdened with the wisdom of great years, and worn with seeking, know only that man knoweth not.

Yonath was the first among prophets who uttered unto men.

I saw the gods beside me as one might see wonted things. Only I saw not MANA-YOOD-SUSHAI. And in that hour, in the hour of my sleep, I knew.
