Viviana hurried back to Gudetown under the veil of night and day, arriving within the time frame agreed upon with Albert.

However, the attentive Albert noticed an uncharacteristic scent of "poverty" emanating from Viviana, and beneath her veil, a faint black spot on the tip of her nose, causing him to frown.

Upon thinking of Banning, Viviana instinctively recalled the events in the cave, causing her to instinctively wish to keep his existence hidden from Albert.
