[ Matt accepts the water with a soft thanks and drinks with gratitude. He glances between Dimitri and the sachet, pondering how best to describe it. ]
So ... if you sleep with it under your pillow, it's designed to induce relaxation and peaceful thoughts. Tension in your body and like, running thoughts in your brain are big things standing in the way of getting good sleep, so that's where it's focused. [ Matt sets the water glass, already half drained, down for a moment so he can open the sachet and pull out a small strip of cloth inked with sigils and symbols. ] Importantly, though, it's also designed to pursue balance. I've made the mistake before of knocking myself out for like a week-- [ Ruefully amused. ] --so you benefit from my trial and error here. It's not gonna knock you out for 12 hours at a stretch, and, there's a protection symbol right here.
[ Matt taps at one of the inked symbols, which resembles an eye. ]
So if there's something threatening around, and you need to be alert, the charm's supposed to release.
