Ignoring Spring was pretty easy at first, but grew more difficult the more tired Tavi got. She felt like snapping at the girl - or maybe dominating over her physically, at least to get the point across that she was of higher rank. However, she also didn't have the energy to care that much either. So instead, she gave a soft chuff and answered the question.

Because the ground is spinning. That was an easy one. Anybody watching the sky at night could tell, with shifting of the constellations, that the ground must have been moving somehow. Unless it was the wind pushing the stars around? This was entirely possible to Tavi - so she briefly doubted her answer. Or maybe the moon is moving too. The way the stars do. Meh, it wasn't important. Another yawn pulled its way out of her, and she felt her attention drifting again.
