Persistent Moon Moriarty
By morning, the physician was already in the house and Maidservant Ann's room was cleared except for Eve who remained with her. He tested her and when he was done, he let out a sigh and looked at Eve.
He was hesitant at first, but then he asked, "Are you aware of her illness?"
Eve slowly nodded and she saw him adjust himself where he sat.
He moved his eyes to look at Maidservant Ann where she laid with her eyes closed and he spoke again, "Her illness is hereditary and she has exposed herself to shock which is slowly paralyzing her. If she keeps going like this, I'm afraid she won't last long. If you really want to help her, don't let her think about those things that causes her to be like this."
