World Outside Time: 4 days later

Jubee lay on the grassy courtyard, bathing in the sunlight and feeling happy and content for the first time in a long while.

She was stretched out, laying in the yellow dress with her notebook, torn a little and battered, but fine other than a bloodstain on the cover, laying open in front of her. She'd purposefully ignored the pages before these ones, concentrating on the better times as she described the castle and the grounds, Sir James, Anmut, and everything that had happened so far.

On the ground next to her Steve was curled up, asleep as usual, and behind her Sir James and Anmut sat, also enjoying the day.

Sir James growled again, but then suddenly looked flummoxed.

Sir James stifled his growl, then got up and stomped inside.

Anmut looked after him with wide eyes, then lowered her head again and began to weep, her hot tears leaving scalded patches in the grass.

"No. It's mine. He heard me talking vhen I vas sick. Und now he knows...." Anmut pressed her face into the grass. "He knows I vant to be his frau."
