Rena nodded in full agreement when Henry spoke of things being considered evil because they went against the grain and the inner kernel.
?
"And the inner kernel, or at least that part of it is formed by the teaching and opinions of others at such a young age. One has to be truly brilliant as we are, to think one's way out of such often times."
?
She grinned.
?
"No need for modesty among superior beings, yes?"
?
Leti looked doubtful but was wise enough to remain silent.

"As for those madmen or women your doctor friend plays with, perhaps it's a bit of both," Rena continued to Henry.
?
"Perhaps some see inside of themselves and some see outside, depending on how their? mind works or shall we say what is wrong with it. For likely you already know that madness isn't just madness, but there are so many different varieties of madness and causes for it too."
?
Leti's eyes brightened with some intrigue in spite of herself. She did have a sharp mind and this was in turns interesting and wonderland mad for her over tired mind at present. But right now, considering that there were types and reasons for madness was interesting as in truth, she had generally thought of mad as mad like everyone else.
?
?
Of course she hadn't ever been up close to it thank you very much and the bar maid planned to keep it that way.
?
She lost interest or perhaps became confused again when talk turned back to more strange vinues.
?
"As for where the mind goes though,"Rena continued, "I should think some lucky tampering with the brain could make one more naturally psychic. We're all supposed to have it to a natural degree but some more than others like any ability. So I'm not surprised that improved with some of his patients. The other speculations though...Perhaps if you knew someone who he had tampered with and who you wished to study, what happened to that part, you could do it in dreams. You could seek them in a dream and perhaps if they are dreaming, if they are able to dream, you can see it and that will answer some of your questions. I don't even know if my mom thought to use dreams that way," Rena said, squeezing Henry's hand, suddenly sharing in his excitement. She usually cared little for science but she did do dreams and this particular study had surprisingly struck her interest.
?
"And I know you don't know how to do that now, but you will, and perhaps once you take? the potion I could help you to tap into it sooner. Only problem is I did not could not dream when we went to sleep. Which isn't right at all."
?
She frowned.
?
"I was looking for our bosses, or planning to so that I could ask them some questions but no go."

I'm friends with the monster that's under my bed.
I get along with the voices inside of my head.
