WESSEX
Some line of tension in the General visibly relaxes once the herbalist agrees - she bows her head for a moment and then dredges up the most sincere pair of words she can. “Thank you. I really appreciate it.” And the gift would not be without reward.
As far as biting goes - well, Wessex understands Ray’s hesitation.
“Of course. It won’t hurt at all. In fact, it might even feel good, but that can differ from person to person in the circumstances. I don’t need much, so it should be fairly quick.” Wessex stands and comes to the side of the table so that Ray doesn’t have to stretch so far. Though she's already been given permission, Wessex waits again for a non-verbal go-ahead before starting. Gently reaching for the offered wrist, the Wraith cradles it before easing her teeth into the delicate skin and doing her best to take only what is needed.
