In the morning, Damien was the first to leave the bedchamber. The manor was quiet around him as he went in search of Hannah, wanting Eloise's breakfast brought up to the chamber.
"Damien!" Jane called, her footsteps quick as she walked towards him. "You have woken quite late. So did Eloise. Is she not well?" she asked, the concern in her voice genuine. "She is to take me to learn to make the headpieces. The festival is tonight, so we don't have much time left."
"You will go when she wakes up. Allow her a little more time to rest," said Damien.
"This morning, some people came to drop off baskets with baked goods, jams, and fruit. Are the country folk always so generous?" Jane wondered, tilting her head.
"Eloise is here. They are doing it for her. Where are the baskets?" Damien questioned, already moving to find them.
