The trauma had fortunately faded slightly now though the image of discovering her sick cousins was certainly one that had stuck with her for some time. It certainly hadn't helped her worries and had perhaps been part of the reason of her lack of sleep in the early stages of the illness. She had gotten past it though the images and thoughts were still a little disturbing even now they were all getting better.
She gave a steady nod in agreement to her mother's comment a routine would certainly be a good distraction and a way to get back to normal for them all. Hopefully it wouldn't be long before they could all pretend that this dreaded sickness had never touched them in the first place.
Her mother would soon ask about her training and Novella would drop her gaze down briefly. Her studies had certainly been cast aside throughout all of this but even before the epidemic she certainly wasn't great at anything in particular. Various ideas appealed to her but she couldn't simply commit. Once it had been the fighting for the urge to protect herself and others, that of course still interested her though with the recent epidemic she certainly wished she knew more about healing. "Not exactly." She responded. "I've learnt bits and pieces here in Ludicael but I'm not really good at anything."
