I Can't Stand The Suspense Here Anymore

Dagrún lifted her head off her paws as she heard Tyrfing call out. He did not sound very good and it struck her that he might have the illness to. Good! She didn't want to be the only one with it. Before she could invite him in he helped himself and crawled into her den before flopping down near her. She shifted and grumbled but truthfully she was glad he was there. "Yea, I got it to. Wonder if anyone else did or if we're the lucky ones. Any idea what to do about it? I tried pulling one out but it really hurt and I couldn't get it." She couldn't pull them out and she hadn't had much luck by trying to wash them off of her with water either. "Think Alfrún would know what to do?" If this were some kind of curse then maybe she could break it for them.
