A little history ...

I'm just writing up the "Hands of Ghosts" (or ghosthands as ETPs have
taken to call them instead) and as I did, I remembered exactly where
they came from.

Of course, like most things, they came from In Serein - the true
manual on healing and the place where I learned the things that now
make up EmoTrance.

So, and just because I wanted to, here is the first ever appearance of
the ghosthands. Book 2, 4/4.

I stand and look at him looking out at his father’s lands and find
myself caressing his brow, his hair and his shoulder with my thoughts,
stroking his back, seeking to remove some of the tension in his neck
with loving fingers of ghost, stroking away darkness and soreness and
dissolution from his shoulder blades, from his spine.
As in response, the ice begins to melt a little at a time, softening
around the edges and I remember how he took me so gently to a place of
calm in my own sorrows, such a short time ago, and I ease his melting
and support his calm beyond the ice as best I know how yet without
drowning him in an ocean of emotions he has no use for, nor can he
find nourishment of any kind within its depths.
