The time spent talking with Brother Raluca had not been a wasted one, and Aïleen felt some of the man's peace had rubbed on her, much to her surprise. So when he talked about his other duties, she was torn between letting go of him, and abiding by customs. In the end, politeness prevailed.
"Of course, Brother, I understand perfectly. Let me thank you deeply once again, and should I be able to help you back, please let me know." she said with a deep smile.
Then, rising slowly, the Mekhet gathered her belongings, and moved toward the exit of the Meditation Room. She didn't want to think about what would be conducted here in the next few days. "Well, then... Good evening, Supplicant, and best of luck in your endeavours."
Unless Teodor holds her back,
Aïleen leaves the Scene. Thank you,
