I don't know if he is dead or not. FASA isn't really prone to the "Marvel
Effect" of killing someone and then bringing them back, however, without a
body...

Also, I doubt D could see the future. He MAY have been the one feeding KSAF
the info, though. Consider this, though. He had a VERY vast computer and
human network set up, if you believe half of what was said in the end. He
had access almost instantly to many things that happened in the world, and
may have manipulated some of them. Also, Dragons don't think the same way
we do. I get the feeling they are much more intelligent (the Greater
Dragons, at least) and can think along a much broader and longer vciewpoint
than humans. They can simply comprehend and assimilate more than
(meta)humans. I think this gives them a unique perpective on things, and
gives them the ability to much more accurately predict things. In a sense,
they can see thye future, but I don't think it's magically...
