    Like you said before, Oda, Ishikawa, and Kate said in a Q&A that Zenos' dreams are due to his being an Ascian's great-grandson and that it "skipped a generation". I don't think we'll get any more than that especially now with him likely (hopefully) dead forever.

    Maybe it says something about me that when I hear this, I don't think the interesting story potential is in Zenos getting magic psychic dreams, it's in Varis NOT getting them. I'm a tiny bit more sympathetic towards him knowing that he's the one guy in his family that's left out of the mysterious big picture, and is clearly looked down on for it! And honestly, it makes a lot of the story around him make a lot more sense!

    Only a tiny bit more sympathetic, though. He's still an abject horrifying monster. But I think it puts him above the other Galvuses for me, I'm more interested in the inferiority complex that Varis clearly has than the superiority complex that his son and grandfather have.
