The ancient looking shaman smiled at the large man. "Hello, my child," he said. "I am sure this comes as a shock to you, seeing me here. Please do not be alarmed as I am simply here to discuss current happenings with you and Jim. I would have liked it if my dear Beth were awake as well but  She needs her rest. Please, take a seat and we can begin talking."<br/><br/>Jim chuckled and shook his head. "I'm sure you know who this is," he said. "A hint, in case you don't, is 'the one we were just speaking about a moment ago'." He smiled at him, waiting for the response.
