"Any other symptoms?" Difyr asked.

"I was seasick the entire time I was gone on the ship. I was sick just previous to this but truthfully, I think it was seeing Questa holding up those ears she lopped off of those people."

"So it was Questa who did that..." Difyr shook her head, unsure if she wanted to know why Questa did that. She looked at Brighid and Yehudit. Brighid was Sileas's mother, and Yehudit would stick with Sileas no matter what. Difyr sighed. "Did anyone hurt you during the raid?"

Sileas gave her a puzzled look. "Other than tearing my heart out and ripping it to pieces?" Sileas shook her head. "One tried to grab me but I fought him off."

"Okay." Difyr felt Sileas's forehead, she did not have a fever. "Has everything been regular? No missed periods?"

Sileas blinked and frowned. Why would Difyr ask her something like that? "Truthfully, I don't pay any attention. I mean, it's not like I can get pregnant and they have been fairly..er...irregular since being injured."

"Have you had any relations?" Difyr asked.

Sileas glanced at her cousin and mother. "Uhm...maybe we should continue this in private," she whispered.

"As if. Sileas is never alone with a guy long enough." Yehudit scoffed. "What's wrong with her?"

That was almost good as yes. Difyr nodded and offered Sileas a hand up.

Sileas accepted. She made the mistake of glancing at her mother. The look on her face clearly said she suspected if she didn't know for certain.

Difyr led her away. "Several female patients are in one room, your Aunt and Uncle are in the other. Do you know of a more private place?"

"I would suggest my room but Yehudit would follow us. Of course, she's going to follow anywhere I go."

"We might be able to slow her, but she will find out sooner or later." Difyr said.

Once again, Sileas wondered what Difyr was getting at. "I suppose Questa could keep her at bay."

"Where is your room?" Difyr asked.

"It's off of the kitchen. We would go through the kitchen, down some stairs and then there's our rooms."

"Okay." Difyr said and headed that way.

Sileas followed, knowing her mother would be close behind.

Yehudit hobbled after as fast as she could.

Brie followed quickly enough to pass Yehudit. "As her mother, Difyr, I demand to be in on this conversation."

Difyr sighed. "Sileas, you're of age. It's up to you if your mother is present or not."

Sileas eyed her mother and bit her lower lip. "I suppose it's all right."

"Okay." Difyr said.

Sileas nodded uncertainly and headed for her rooms.  She hoped what ever the problem wasn't too horrible and life threatening.
