"Ah... a full stomach and fresh air—pure bliss," Mira sighed, her eyes half-closed.
"I didn’t expect such a feast on a herb-gathering mission," Garrick added, wiping his hands clean on a patch of cloth. "You’re either too generous or trying to fatten us up."
Liora clutched her empty chocolate wrapper, her usual drowsiness replaced by rare focus. "...Sweet. I’ll remember this."
Kael laughed. The rations he had brought with him had caused a stir among the adventurers. They had never seen food like this—easy to eat, unique in taste, and nutritious.
Seris was still sitting a little distance away. Perhaps she was thinking about something.
"Does your slave not eat this type of food?" Darien asked quietly.
"She’s not used to it yet," Kael said in a low voice. "She thinks she doesn’t deserve to enjoy such precious things."
