The night before I chatted with Ni'enw till midnight. I awoke in the morning and prepared The Dark One's meal.

I climbed the spiral staircase to her quarters, and knocked on the door.

The Dark One told me enter. I sat the tray down on the table and set out the dishes. After I approached the door and attempted to leave.

She stopped me and spoke saying that I would have to be confined in my quarters for the next week.
She wouldn't tell me why but it seemed very urgent. It took me by surprise; I wouldn't be able to talk to Ni'enw for seven days.

The Dark One then said she would be making sure I was prepared for those seven days.

She told me to wait while quickly finished her meal. She then stood up, and walked over to me, we then teleported to the castle's Kitchen.

Using her magic, we prepared my meals. She asked if there was any other amenities I would need or want. The only things I could think of were books, pens, paper, and toiletries.

It was eerie how accommodating she was being.

In the end Everything was brought to my room.
