We saw here that a telepath who can read only surface thoughts talks to a prisoner in order to bring associations into his conscious mind.
Thus, we read, in a book received as a present today:
D'jinn, disguised as a slave girl: Gather all who serve Yussuf's ascendancy together tonight for an important meeting.
Sidi Nouman: Is that wise? In the past we've never congregated more than two or three at a time. Those were always Yusuf's orders.
D'jinn: No Matter. I simply needed to ascertain the fullness of the list which appeared in your mind the moment I inquired of them.
I've captured it complete, and so you are of no further use to me, Sidi Nouman, famous abuser of horses.
-Bill Willingham, Fables: Arabian Nights (And Days), (Burbank, CA, 2006), p. 59, panels 5-6.

Kaor, Paul!
All I can appropriately think of here is how Aycharaych conversed with his captive Erannath to bring into his conscious mind associations and chains of thought the Chereionite could read.
Ad astra and Happy New Year! Sean
