The first floor of the dorm was a dining hall, so that was where they were eating . It was open for their use at certain hours .
“It’s so yummy! It’s so yummy!”
At one of the tables sat Heath, gobbling down bowl after bowl, as tears ran down her face . Naturally, everybody was a little astounded .

Plus, even after they began to converse with her, Heath herself wasn’t unpleasant at all .
In fact, even her greedy table manners kind of reminded them of a squirrel, so they found her behaviour cute .
