Tristan helped the girl sit up a little so he could inspect the back of her head. No breaking of the skin. Merely a bump. "The fainting itself? Probably not. It might be overexcitement from the events of the day. We'll focus on that in a moment. It doesn't seem like the head injury is severe. Sit up now, child, it's quite safe." He turned to Mrs. Blacke. "If she seems confused at any point in the next 24 hours, starts vomiting, or her head starts hurting badly, come and get me. It would be good to wake her up tonight, a few hours after she's gone to sleep, to make sure everything is alright, if you want to be on the safe side." He turned to the girl in the doorway. "A clean cloth, soaked in cold water might reduce the bump."

Kate nodded, took a clean towel from one of the cupboards and went outside to hold it under the pump.

Tristan turned back to Mrs. Blacke. "Has this happened before?"
