Re: Three

Helena also goes about eating. She was making some mental notes as well for things she wished to accomplish the following day with Martha. Helena was wondering if she could find anything she could scavenge for building any sort of devices. It would be far easier said than done, she knew, especially when she'd need to devise a power source for it, but she couldn't deny the appeal of building a device that could serve as a heater or something of the sort. Especially for being outdoors. Even though she doubted being able to find enough parts lying about in this town, it was still a project that was something to chew on for a mind that always needed challenges and puzzles.

Not that Norfinbury wasn't a challenge in and of itself, but turning the same thing over and over in one's mind tended to get repetitive and caused one to miss crucial clues from the repetition.

"By my counting, a couple weeks, I think. It's almost strange how the days sometimes blend together." At least it was easy to tell the days did actually pass. It would be something else if they were in an area where the sun shone at midnight or something of the sort. "How about yourself?"

It really was a wonder just how much this place seemed to isolate people. It was easy to see how a person could go a couple days without seeing another person here. So Helena was definitely going to soak up this interaction with Martha for all she could get.
