Kate wagged her tail to see him eating, "Slow down a bit. Ann will bring us more for later." Kate looked over to Ann as she was about to leave the room, "Ann please bring more soup, warm sweet rolls, cider and fruit."<br/>Ann nods before walking out and closing the door.<br/><br/>"Trillen, I know your bored lying in bed. Ann has knives that need sharpening and I have herbs that need to be crushed. Listen to me.. you are to do these things in short spans. Do not feel you have to them all at once. If the pain in your hands make you want to cry out. Stop."<br/><br/>In moments Ann returns with a large soup terrine (sp?) and sets it by the fireplace. "Do you want more soup Dear? She brings over to him a small bowl of fruit and fresh mug of apple cider, "Careful it is hot. I know you like this."<br/><br/>Kate looked at Ann, "I need you to bring up anything that Trillen can chop or tear. He is going to go stir crazy lying in bed. His hands need to be worked."<br/><br/>Ann blinks and nods, "Yes, I can bring him things to do....stringing up popcorn for the tree and will see what the soldiers needs sharpening or polishing. Oh my there is a lot that needs polishing getting the house ready for guests. Trillen you will be a lot of help."
