Morwenna hadn't taken any of the valuable items in his place.

Rumor had it that she was from the mountains and a freshman at college. She was probably as broke as she looked.

Stuart was unusually perturbed, his thoughts a tangled mess.

The unrest made it impossible for him to keep up his façade.
