Dalila listened curiously as Reila revealed that she did in fact need something from her and then explained that Chimera had sent her to ask about her nightmares. A mix of understanding, concern, and sympathy flicked across her features as she nodded, letting Reila say her piece as she mentioned her doubt that there was anything that could help. "I used to have terrible nightmares as well," she shared after a moment, offering Reila a small smile. "There are some things to at least help ease you into a deeper sleep so the dreams aren't as frequent if you would like for me to gather some of those herbs for you, but... I'm afraid they won't solve the root of the issue. Only time and working through whatever the root of those nightmares is will."
She would have loved to have an easy, cure all solution to offer the other woman, but things were hardly ever that easy. Things were always more messy and complicated than they even appeared on the surface. "Do you want to talk about what your nightmares are about?" she offered with a curious look. "I know we just met, but you won't have any judgement from me. Talking through things is definitely easier than keeping it all bottled up." She knew that for herself at the very least she began to improve exponentially once Siren came into her life and she was able to talk about her past and make amends with herself so she wondered if maybe Reila simply needed an open ear to listen.
