Caretaker Shani raised a brow at the Village Chieftess's words.
"I don't understand what you mean, Chieftess. Are you suggesting that I need someone's permission before deciding to take a break to mourn the death of my husband?" she asked, a frown suddenly appearing on her face.

The Village Chieftess quickly understood her mistake and shook her head tiredly.
"I'm sorry I didn't phrase my words correctly. I meant to say, can you show me your palms and allow me to use my gift on you?" The Village Chieftess said.
