With Cam's warning about staying near the tent and out of harm's way, and with a ritual in progress, Juniper knew she couldn't just get up and start pacing around, much as she wanted to.

For the next minute and a half or so, Juniper busied herself with rummaging through Cam's snack bar, trying to solve the problem of her appetite.
