After dreaming this, Faith staggers down the stairs, wild-eyed, looking utterly wrung out and visibly searching for someone. You know who you are.

Faith winces. "I'm sorry. For you and for her. I can't imagine...I'm sorry."

Zedd doesn't seem to hear her as he slowly comes out of memories.

"When I tried to heal her my magic boiled the blood in her veils because of a spell that my enemies left on her."

He changes subjects right after he says this.

"Sorry your the one with the crazy dreams not me."

"Don't apologize." Faith sighs. "It's...I'm sorry about your wife. I've discovered that whole love thing myself recently, I can't imagine what I would do...though he's not likely to die anytime soon...immortal and all..."

Zedd smiles pleasently.

"It is merely an old wound that never seemed to heal properly. I would think you have more problems then a fool of a wizard. I may be a fool, but I know how to listen if you need me to."

"Thanks." Faith shrugs. "I'm not good at the talking thing."

Zedd thinks for a moment.

"Perhaps there is something else I might be able to do for you. I could give you a dreamless sleep if you so desired."

Faith is silent, looking down at her hands, torn for a moment between her duty and her desires...but then she remembers her dream, and she looks up at Zedd hopefully. "Really dreamless? Just for one night?"

Zedd slowly, peacfully, nods his head.

"Yes I can do that for you. It would be the best thing I can think of to help you right now. If there is something else I can do ask and I will try."

"One night would be...wonderful." Faith sighs. "Twelve hours. I have to figure these things out, but...twelve hours."

Zedd seemed to let off a warm presence, very peacefull indeed.

"It is harder to understand things sometimes when you have not had proper rest in a while. It may even help you solve whatever the dreams are trying to tell you."

He uses a little magic on her just to make sure he knows how much to use. She wouldn't even have felt anything from how little he used.

"I can let you sleep whenever you wish. If you want to talk some first then by all means you should talk."

"Nah, I think I'll grab that sleep now. And talk later." Faith smiles at him, standing. "Thank you. It...means a lot."

Zedd delves deep into her eyes for a moment.

"You look to need it badly."

He pulls a small peanut out of a pocket casting a small spell on it. He then casts a spell on her, which would give her a very comforting sensation.

"I have put a spell on you and this nut. Eat it when you lay down in your bed and you will be asleep seconds after you swallow."

"I really do." Faith accepts the nut, smiling. "thank you."

"In case you are wondering. There are a few reasons why I didn't use it fully now. First off it would put you to sleep here in the chair, and secondly I don't know which room is yours because I wouldn't leave you here in the bar."

He makes a mental note.

"I believe you said twelve hours. That is how long the spell will last. It will also wake you up when it loses it's effect so you won't need to worry about slipping into one of your dreams."

"Thank you," Faith says again. "That's perfect." She smiles again, tiredly. "Every little bit of sleep helps."

Zedd nods happily.

"You should be off to bed then. The spell will were off if not used within twenty minutes or so."

"Right."

Faith raises her hand in a wave, then turns and trots up the stairs.

Zedd bows his head slightly as she walks off. Feeling rather pleased to be able to help.
