*Kero nods*
When we drop her off, you and I are going to go sit somewhere...maybe I can't fix this...but I can at least help bear the burden.

Shar nods and then brightens as Estelle comes out of the shop carrying a small covered crockery bowl. "Here, Lady Estelle, allow me to carry that for you." she offers taking the bowl into her hands.

*They soon drop the lady off, and Kero looks at Shar, gently lowering his body*
Okay...climb on...we need to head into the woods for a bit...better to have us far off...you never know what will happen when one Empath heals another...or tries to...and I'm the fastest way to get there.

Shar chuckles as she hikes up her robes enough to climb on. "Well, I'm certainly not Estelle. I have nothing against hitching a ride with you, my friend. Especially iffin ye think ye can help me with this."

*Kero chuckles*
Hold on tight, then....and by the way...don't kill me for saying this...nice legs.
*Darts towards the woods, carrying Shar on his back*

Shar hops off his back in a clearing that looks vaguely charred. "Why thank you, I think.. just remember, I'm old enough to be your mother... What happened here? Is this where the fire got out of it's ring?"

*Kero nods*
As good a place as any...I need to start a fire, Or I'll freeze to death...*Does just that, calling to Thyrion when he has the flames high enough*...Okay...Salamander fire burning to keep us warm...Shar...come here, please.

She rolls an old fallen log over to where he is sitting by the fire and joins him. "My joints don't do so well in the cold anymore either. So I'd rather not sit on the ground, if you don't mind. Wouldn't ye be better off up here as well?" she asks patting the log, which still has plenty of space to share.

*Kero hops up, gripping the log in his claws*
Sharmistra...I give you my word right here and right now that all I will do in your mind will be to observe your nightmares and seek to quell them, as well as seeking out their source and attempting to destroy it, if needful. This is all I will do, on my oath and on my true name. Will you allow me into your mind?

Shar touches him on the nose. "I seek only to understand them, Kerobian... not destroy them. I feel they are trying to tell me something, but for the life of me I don't know what... What if there is something I need to do someday... or someone I need to warn... or..." she throws up her hands and laughs self consciously. "Sometimes Lathander's messages get a little confusing."

*Kero nods*
I did say "If it was needful..." meaning I won't do it unless they are the product of some disease or other stimuli...you have my word on that.

Shar nods then and closes her eyes, dropping the shields on her thoughts. "Tip toe gently..." she begs with a half hearted smile.

A series of battle scenes, some ancient and long past, others so far in the future as to look unrealistic.... but he soon sees what she means about the people she sees. Ai is there... in all of them, in one shape or form, never fighting but always working in the background, tending the wounded, pulling them to safety, and Mica, sometimes leading the charge, sometimes supporting... and other members of the temple, plus, oddly enough Bez and upon occasion himself. And as she said, things never look very well, but neither do they look hopeless... though he does see many of those he knows fall in battle at some point or another... history repeating itself in an endless cycle.

*He recognizes what it is instantly...and gently puts Shar's mind into a deep slumber...knocking her out in the real world with his venom, and resting her on a blanket he has Thyrion fetch for him. He then looks to the sky...night it may be, but he knows who is there...and he calls out to the morning lord, as Kerobian vules-Noctuslain...King of the Void...as well as Kero, the little lion who once played a silly song inside his temple, and got booted for it by the Dawnlord...his cry, mental and physical as it is, would awaken anybody who wasn't forced into slumber...so it is a good thing they are outside the realm of men at this point*
