Tucking away her speech, Morwenna asked with a puzzled tone, "Keira, don't you have a class tonight? What brought you back so early?"

Caught off-guard, Keira stammered, "I'm feeling a bit under the weather today. I'd hit the hay early."

"No, no, it's just my Aunt Flo. A bit of rest should do the trick."

"Alright then, get some rest. The others haven't come back yet. You might want to pull the curtain around your bed for peace."

"Yeah, sure."
