Good Riddance to Alura

Fred removed the daisies from his nostrils. "Are you all right?" he asked her a little anxiously. "Rolling down a mountain-side isn't really a good idea in your condition. I wouldn't want any harm to come to either you or my unborn son and heir."

"I seem to be fine, thanks. My unborn child could equally well be a daughter, of course. And I'm afraid that at the moment it looks as though all he or she will be heir to is this island."

1. That was the last that they saw of Alura. Whether she was making a great effort to keep well away from them or whether something bad had happened to her, they neither knew nor cared.
2. A day or two later, Alura returned to the site that Fred, Astra and Velus had made their base.
