Do not open the door. Do not go outside. There is food for you in the blue bowls in the kitchen, your drink is in the cup. We will beback shortly.

In Damien’s style the note reiterated the instructions about not going outside several more times. It was explained that other menwould hurt me if | was found in the compound alone. My family had errands and | had seemed so tired when they woke up.

The largest blue bowl on the counter was that funny wet bread mixed with the red sprouts. A note next to the bowl stated theyknew this was not my favorite. The men also provided an orange in the second bowl. | was instructed to eat both and drink thefizzy drink they had left.

| had my breakfast in silence and then took the pad and wandered into the sitting area. Once more | tried to contact Hannah andlet her know I was fine, but she did not answer. | just sat and absently read an article on sea dwelling creatures while | waited forthe men.

After a while sleepiness crept up on me again. | curled onto the chaise under a blanket and decided to doze for just a fewmoments. My eyelids drifted closed as | watched the low fire flicker in the hearth. It was so peaceful.

| was sleeping the way | did every time | was pregnant. My men were upset they had not noticed. They were even more upsetthey didn’t know it was because the children weakened me. It would have been better if they'd done as Nu-reeh wanted andwaited.

“Nu-reeh wants us in the mountains,” Damien said, “but we do not leave today. She does not want us to travel in the dark, whichwe would have to do if we left now. We leave tomorrow.”

“It is very strange,” Christof said settling on a chair across from me.

“Oh no,” | moaned pitifully, “I hope she isn’t putting us in a cave again.”
