A Cloud Kingdom Classic Riddle

From The Riddle Treasury

A seer sole in a damp cave

Lapping at the brine within

Has visions of the here and now

And shares them with his twin.

No grave omens will he speak

No lies will this seer tell.

Under blanket of the night

Resting in his lidded cell.

(answer is one word)

Take my guess exactly as typed

I'm not sure of the spelling
