Evanna didn't mention every aspect of what had happened to her, especially moments between her and Arawn, which was private though she did explain how he helped her with the elven gifts. Her story took them well into the night, and near the end, she was yawning, her head falling to the side of Ger's shoulder, whispering the last words. Ronan passed out once she'd escaped the palace and ran into Conrad, but Axel remained awake with them, being the closest.
The icy elven prince had continued facing the other way though Evanna suspected he'd fallen asleep as Garrett returned and switched places with him. She awoke in the early hours of the morning, before first light, when Ger was rocked away to take a shift. With the group expanded in size, minus the night fae, they could all get more sleep than previously.
