Pythia confides in Tigh regarding her visions of the woman in red, which they keep to themselves. Additionally, she exhibits signs of clairvoyance (as was the case with the death of [[Kara Thrace]] between 2 to 3 [[ACH]]) and wrote down many of her prophecies during her time in the sanitarium. As tensions mount on Kobol, she is later publicly tried as a heretic and sentenced to immolation, thus fueling tensions between the atheistic [[Thirteenth Tribe (RDM alternate)|Thirteenth Tribe]] and the polytheistic Twelve Tribes. | Pythia confides in Tigh regarding her visions of the woman in red, which they keep to themselves.

According to [[Messengers|Head Six]], the woman they see before them isn't really Pythia, but instead one of her own kind, [[Aurora, Goddess of the Dawn|Aurora]]. Head Six claims that Aurora is the only one of them that isn't content to just offer guidance, instead actively interfering by taking physical form. As Head-Six simply puts it, Pythia was actually the goddess Aurora, who had gone rogue and taken the form of the deceased Pythia to help guide the Cylon survivors to their [[Earth (RDM)|new homeworld]]. | According to [[Messengers|Head Six]], the woman they see before them isn't really Pythia, but instead one of her own kind, [[Aurora, Goddess of the Dawn|Aurora]].

Pythia also rewrote the survivors' genome to make biological procreation possible amoungst them. Upon arriving on Earth, it is revealed that both Michael and Pythia had one son: [[Saul Tigh]], who would later become a member of the legendary [[Final Five]], who was a little boy. | ||
Upon settling on Earth, Pythia marries [[Michael Tigh]] and the two raise their son Saul together. Shortly upon settling on Earth to Saul, Pythia fell ill and died, just while Saul was an infant. However, Michael had banned Resurrection, due to the tribe being able to procreate and having offspring, and thus, was unable to save her.

Nearly [[BCH|2,000]] years later, [[John Cavil (alternate)|John Cavil]] would relate Pythia's fate to Saul, stating how she fell ill and begged Michael to bring Resurrection back to save her, but refused to do so on ideological grounds.
