Eolenth (14:26) *The conversation with Azan was short as it often was. There were so many questions he still had about them, but he hd since long learned it
was more often better to not know. There had been things revealed to him that were horrifying and painful, though at times still empowering. Still, he
had no reason to believe that they would have patience with his questions forever. The passing through the shadow had put Gerti into a deep slumber, as
it did any without the proper power. It was in part what made it so dangerous. Gerti had been taken to a place to continue sleeping until wakened while
he had reported. WIth his new instructions, now, he enters the room where she still sleeps. He moves to her side and places a hand lightly on her forhead,
as he has done so many times in the night when he has slipped into her sleeping place. smokey tendrils extend from his hand and go into Gerti. There, he
enters her dreams, manipulates them and blending the nightmares that she suffers with reality. His role, as it always has been, is a friendly face, a guide
and a point of strength. He is always there to carry her out of the fear, the pain, the sorrow and entrapment of the nightmares. This time, it is different,
though. The reality of the nightmares are real as though she were awake, intensified, the shadow induced slumber and his manipulations keeping her there
until the just right moment inside her mind. The thin tendrils eventually fade and disappear. He removes his hand from her and steps away. He sits down
in the chair in the room to wait for her to wake up normally. Everything to this point was to mold Gerti, to set her on a path to learn from him and to
become one of Azan's chosen; a dark psion.*

Gerti (14:30) *awakens from the best and most uninterupted hours of sleep she's had in all her life as a slave feeling not well rested from the dreams that felt like more than dreams. Nightmares and omens that way heavily on her foggily waking mind*

Gerti (14:31) *weigh, not way*

Eolenth (14:37) *He sits up just a touch straighter as Gerti stirs, then stands.* Welcome back to the world of the awake, Gerti.

Gerti (14:38) *jumps in fright, only vaguely remember meeting Eolenth last night, along with ending her slavery. She slumps looking miserably remorseful.*

Eolenth (14:42) *With care he approaches her, stopping at her side as he rests a hand on her shoulder.* What's wrong?

Gerti (14:44) My head hurts from the horrible things the night has shown me.

Eolenth (14:50) *Gives her shoulder a pat.* It'll pass. *He smiles a touch.* You have an important meeting today, my dear. One that is going to change things for you forever. No more slavery, no more scraps, no more disrespect...

Gerti (14:58) Nope.
