ooc: we get internet set up at my house on tuesday, so I will be able to devote more time then, sorry it has been so long, thank you for being patient with me.
ic: Mara listened and as she was told to do something, she imagined herself doing it. When Leoryll had stopped talking, Mara sat back in her chair, sitting up until her back was flat against the chair. She slowly closed her eyes and softened her face. Her thoughts slowly cleared and she listened to her breathing. She thought of herself breathing deeply in, then blowing out. The sound of the kitchen did start to interfere with her thoughts, but she tried to ignore them. Her mind wound up paying attention almost to a rhythm beat by every dish when the cook cleared then cleaned them. She started to wander on that beat and hear the sound of wooden instruments flow with it.
She opened her eyes with a start, "I need to go to a prayer room to do this, I just made a wonderfull melody with the cooks cleaning. I don't think that I will be able to begin meditating in this kind of atmosphere just yet." She looked softly down and thought how much of a disappointment it was not to be able to do this. She didn't realize that it was normal to be at such a beginner's level with never being trained before. She waited softly for Leoryll to show her the way to a prayer room where she might be able to concentrate better on meditating.
