“Yes,” said Yenu-pezth, after a few moments of consideration. “This is a good plan.”
She was speaking to them from Alden’s tablet, which was propped on the floor table in the cottage. Alden had just carefully explained his ideal nightmare replacement to her. He resisted saying, “Told you so!” to Stuart, who had suggested they make this call because he wasn’t sure Yenu-pezth would approve of the plan.
Something, something…a realistic survival dream complete with demon fighting doesn’t sound like any treatment I’ve ever had, Alden.
“Preparing thoroughly for this and thinking in this way may bring you as much help as the dream itself,” Yenu-pezth added. “And I have some thoughts on how to make it more effective. Try to identify four possible > of unexpected trouble that you might encounter in this dream and solve with your current strengths. Let’s meet six nights from now. If you’re not ready to adjust the dream at that time, we can speak of other matters. Do you agree with this?”
“I do, Healer Yenu,” said Alden. “I’ll be ready with the scenarios for the dream by then.”
“When you feel sure of them, then you will be ready,” Yenu-pezth said crisply. “I will not argue with your surety, nor will I rush it. You may call me again at this hour when you have questions.”
They both thanked her, and Alden ended the call.
