The click of the latch of the front door engaging pulled Chemar's attention from her task. Gold rimmed eyes looked toward the outer room as she massaged the last of the cinnamon oil into her palms. To the man behind the half screen who was getting dressed, she spoke. "I hope that took care of your aches. It sounds as though I'm needed." He glanced at the dream walker with a wide smile. "I do wish you would let me thank you properly Chemar. " The tone in his voice, and the smile that curled his lips betrayed the means of repayment that he sought, but Chemar simply responded with a gentle smile and a shake of her head. "I will see you next time."
With that, she spun on the ball of her foot and headed toward the outer room, just in time to hear the call for assistance. The quiet chiming of the glass woven into her hair announced her arrival before she appeared. The man that stood in the entry room of the Dreaming Lady took Chemar by surprise. His height virtually dwarfed the dreamwalker, he had to be nearly seven feet tall. Before speaking, she took a moment to watch him. He had been aware of her early on and now watched her as she watched him, his wide round eyes appealed to her, lending a curious, alert countenance to the stranger.
"Indeed, I can help you." As always, her voice was soft, but clear, and she approached the man with an outstretched hand. "Let us start with our names, and then you can tell me what it is you seek. I am Chemar. " Without hesitation, she slipped her hand into his, where it nearly disappeared, and with a sincere smile, cradled his hand between her smaller ones for a friendly greeting.
