Why would Harry be telepathic?
My guess is it's the power of being Warden. Him being Warden has connected him to the Island, and the prisoners. That's why he can communicate with them. It's my guess that if someone like Thomas went down there it would be utterly silent for him. Harry can hear them though because of his Warden status.

That brings me back to the same question I had for Grimlock King:
--- Quote from: Quantus on June 21, 2017, 08:50:24 PM ---But since communication is "Buggering it up entirely" why would the Well itself be providing for direct mental contact between the Inmates and the Warden? Seems like a security risk.

Communication is buggering it up entirely for that prisoner. The rest of the prisoners seem to be fine being allowed to communicate. The British guy doesn't want to be in contact with anyone. That just means that while he doesn't want communication, it doesn't mean that it is ACTUALLY "Buggering it up entirely."

The Warden should have that power as it might be required to question, or communicate with those locked up. The person in stasis is just pointing out that Harry, and other Wardens haven't displayed the maturity or wisdom of the original Warden who probably had amazing self control, and blocked out unwanted communication. Harry doesn't have that communication on the surface. The original Warden probably did not go down there unless it was absolutely required while Harry was doing parkour down there... Hardly mature, or wise, and showing a lack of respect for the dangers the prisoners could still inflict even if locked up. There whispering could influence, or trick him.
The Warden is the controller of that Island. That person has Intelectus of the Island, control of it's defenses, control over Alfred, and the ability to telepathically communicate with the prisoners. Of course communicating with the prisoners is a security risk. So is controlling the Islands defenses, or control over Alfred. But being Warden is being the boss.

The Brit seems to be the only one that actually agrees with the Purpose of the Well, that's not hte same thing. The others seem to LOVE to communicate because without exception they seem to think they might be able to use it to get free. Which is my point, Any contact at all is potentially a Security Risk, so if you are designing a 5th dimensional Supermax, why risk it?
What the inmates of a Prison think of it's design doesnt really matter...Im sure they'd all vote for short walls made of cheese :P
