Steven and I are looking forward to helping you get settled. Also, this is my first partner, Vrig, and Athvrix. She's helped me a great deal, and has offered a kitten, if you'd like one. She trains them in how to help ease nightmares and other aftermath of stressful lives.

[Even before capture and torture, being a spy had plenty of trauma involved. Thace is very glad for his psychic therapy cat.]
