Isn't the revelations part basically moongazing and seeing the future, seeing as how Muun'Trivazja is actually fueled by the daemon of time.

No. Cognatism has always had this feature. This simply makes it more fleshed out and make more sense, as analysing patterns in things makes things easy to predict things ahead of time. You are not seeing the future, you are making a prediction that can be wrong.

I don't understand fully. Are you bending the Horror to your will, or are you acting as a proxy for it? Why is it providing you power without driving you insane?

Horrors are fed with information. The Horror takes in the information that you give it, being the things you see, read, hear and learn, and due to this makes an agreement with you in order to provide assistance in certain times to help with your learning, indirectly feeding it with knowledge. The Horror takes interest in the particular Cognat and uses that connection in order to learn. As I said above, imagine an audio link wherein the microphone of the horror is disabled. It can talk to you, only when it wants you to do something, and the rest of the time it simply uses you as a proxy to learn knowledge.

So what prompts it to learn things?

A Voidal Horror will always want to learn things. It's stuck in a realm where there is only so much that someone of that realm can learn, and will take opportunities to learn about the overworld. By holding a link with you, it will learn everything you have learned, and continue to learn. It will take in what you hear, what you think, what you read.  Why would something that thinks it knows everything not want to learn what it previously did not know?

It will go through processing via the Lore Team, be discussed in the Lore Mag and a verdict will be issued following that.
