...I am roused in my wagon...Gheeta was covering the night shift at the Med Wagon...I hear Tiveri crying. I wrap my robe around myself, and carefully make my way to where Tiveris' sleeping furs are. I settle myself down, and pull her into my lap, and wrap her up and comfort her. I gently ask, "What happened, daughter." She whimpers, "I had a bad dream, Momma."
I caress her face, and whisper, "It jus be a dream, daughter, it will go away on tha morrow."
...Tiveri sobs, "It was sooo real...an scary." I rock her a bit, and say, "Tell me about it." Tiveri calms down a bit, and says, "I been hearing some tales a Earth...about tall buildings, an sleds that fly by themselves...an about sticks that shoot light an such." I stroke her forehead, and say, "Ye been listenin tae tha barbarian bonds?" She nods, and says, "They be so nice, an they tell good stories." I reply, "Those jus be stories, daughter, dunna believe them." I calm Tiveri down.
...She lets me feed her some fruit juice, and a sticky bun, and tells me about her dream...She smiles at the end, and says..."Yoo showed up, Momma, an yoo 'Went Pamfher." I softly laugh, and say, "Well, let us go tae sleep, now, an I will 'Go Panther' if yer dream comes back". We nestle in the furs, and she falls asleep, and soon, I do, too.
Her dream....
