And he was gone... without her. She had wanted to help him... take care of him, but her godfather was too proud and she should have known better. He was likely to want to be alone... at least today... tomorrow was a different story... tomorrow she'd try to go visit him.

New scene: St. Mungos
Alessia made her way through the busy hospital corridor. She'd purchased opera singing peonies. Their fragrance was delightful, and their songs, subtle and not too loud. They were perfect for her Papa Valon. She stopped at the welcome witch station on that floor and asked for Professor Valon Kazimeriz. He would want to be referred to as professor, it was still his title. As the witch took her to the single bedroom with a window, Alessia smiled. She walked to the door, even though the nurse motioned for her to go in, Alessia still knocked on the frame. "Papa Valon, it's me, Alessia."
