Annalaliath stood up shaking her hair to let any loose strands fall to the floor. Taking the mirror she looked at her hair, " Thank you," she said with a smile and then without thinking she stooped down ad picked up a piece of the hair putting it in a folded piece of paper. Then reaching inside a pocket she retrieved a wooden pen with a silver nib, " here use this in your books," she held it out for Aman, " I have other and I feel I ought to give you this. It will come useful."
After this Annalaliath sat with Morwen and Nahi. " So what was all that about, " she asked Nahi," all that happening last night?" Annnalaliath's knee was bouncing again. She pushed her hair behind her ears. Her eyes were blue and tired, but bright. All the while her knee bounced, letting a secret out (for those who noticed) about her boundless energy. She could hardly sit still for more than a few seconds, without movement of some kind.
