Thomasin exited the changing room with a towel wrapped loosely around her body. She wasn't able to wrap it tightly due to her wings, so she simply held it in place with one hand. There were not many people around so she felt considerably less afraid as she walked into the room she had been instructed to go to. If not for her wings she would have opted to wear a robe as she moved about, but given the circumstances a towel was fine.

Once in the room, she took a moment to look around. It was as she would have expected. The walls were a soft blue color, and the gentle lighting aided them to create a rather calm environment. The color scheme for everything else was various shades of blues and whites which helped her to feel settled. On the far larger wall hung a rather large abstract picture that reflected the color scheme. In the middle of the room sat a cushioned massage table. It was one of the ones with the hole in it so that she could lay on her stomach and see through the table to the floor below. Finally, on a nearby wall, there was a shelf and cabinets that had various oils, candles and other things that she did not recognize.

There was no one else here yet, so she climbed up onto the table and laid down. she made sure to carefully adjust her tail as she got into position to wait for whoever would be coming to take care of her. Se had paid for a massage and shedding assistance. Shedding itself was not difficult for her, after all, she had only her tail, limbs and a few odd places to peel, but the idea of having her scales massaged far too good to pass up.

It was now while laying on the table that she noticed for the first time that there was music playing. It was instrumental and soft and accompanied the sounds of a babbling brook. It was very soothing to listen to and was a nice break from the harsh sounds of the city. Even the smell of lilac seemed infused into the air. Thinking back to it there had been questions on her paperwork about things that relaxed her, one of which pertained to scents that she preferred. It was clear that this room had been prepared for her while she had removed her clothing.

It wasn't long before she heard the door open, and someone enter the room.

Kaliyan looked over the notes as he washed his hands and arms and then tied his hair back. He wasn't dirty, but it was part of the process of preparing to assist each guest and he enjoyed the warm water anyways. Thomasin was a new guest and Lyrseir had predicted that she would likely become one of their regulars. The additional notes marked as confidential explained why Lyr had insisted that Thomasin be assisted only by herself or Kal for the first session. All of the staff could be relied on to be professional and not make the dragonewt uncomfortable, but Lyr had wanted to be extra sure. Technically Kal had only held his Massage Therapy license for less than a year, but he had been extensively trained by his mother.

Kal was distracted for a moment as he felt the subtle effect of his mother's aura shift to better cover that end of the building. Ah, that exceptionally tense guest must be leaving now. Good, that means Lyr is available should Thomasin decide she is uncomfortable with me.

He glanced one more time at the list of preferences and noted the front desk staff had forgotten to ask if she had a preference in massage oils. That would need to be corrected. He also confirmed what Thomasin's requested treatments were for today. Massage and Shedding Assistance. Not a problem.

Kal made sure his nametag was clearly visible on his dark blue short sleeve polo and then knocked on the door to announce himself. "Guest Assistant here for your treatment miss. If you need more time to get situated please let me know." Thomasin didn't tell him to come back later so he slowly opened the door to make sure she was decent. Finding that she was covered and waiting on the table, he slipped in and closed the door after making sure the "In Use" warning was hung up and his own name was listed below it. The guest's name was never displayed on the door to protect their privacy and only the staff knew who was in the numbered rooms.

Once in the room Kal glanced over to make sure the scent diffuser was functioning properly and then walked over to stand near Thomasin. As he did so she would be able to feel the increase in the humidity of the air around him. The room was already comfortably warm so the warmth in the air was not so much of a change. The first step for any treatment was to explain who you were and make sure the guest was going to be comfortable. You can not put hands on someone until you are assured of their comfort. "Ms. Wynter my name is Kaliyan, or Kal if you prefer. I am here to give you your massage and assist with your shedding today. If at any time you are uncomfortable for any reason please say so. I will not be offended and will have someone else take over if you wish. Your comfort and safety is our highest priority. Your session will involve the use of my hands on your body, accompanied by a soft-bristled brush on your scales to help with the shedding. My intention is to work from your neck downwards and then go back for the scales on your face and your horns afterwards. I will do my best to keep the oils out of your hair." His voice was deep and gentle, but his words were clear.

Kal stepped away to the cabinet and retrieved two padded panels with hooks on the ends and a small rolling cart, placing a few bottles, brushes and cloths on it. It rolled smoothly across the floor as if the wheels had been recently oiled. "These panels should give you a nice place to rest those wings while you relax," he explained as he attached them to the sides of the table right where her wings would lie. "I do have one other question. Would it be ok to use almond oil for your massage? We have several options and even have a scentless one if you would prefer."
