In the middle of the night, a young man named shilkefair asks a woman named Nuri why she's trying to take off her clothes to check on her health. Nuri tells him that the old man's getting better, and that she just wants to help him. The young man says that he's glad that Nuri can join them, since he wouldn't leave him alone. He tells her that the young man has stopped bothering him, and he thanks her for her kindness. He asks her if there's something stuck on her hair, and she says that it's not. He says that the bug is a firefly, and asks her to rub it off. She doesn't answer his question, so he asks who she is. She says that she is a high-ranking official, and they were just trying to protect her from bandits. She's fine, he says, and will be fine tomorrow.
