Lorna continued, 'I had an aunt, Aunt Sabina, who was very
kind to me. But she died a year ago, and now I have no one I can
talk to, except my little servant girl, Gwenny Carfax. She's a little
girl that we found almost dying in the hills. Her father went away
one day and never returned. She has no family, so now she lives
with us. The poor girl is fat and ugly, so none of the men are
interested in her. She can go where she likes, and the guards don't
stop her.'
