Although I made a clear food for protection deal with the Spriggan, I realized just in time that the village, Demme having their own luck of food and security is not good business on my part.
The people of Demme need a leash to be kept on them so they know to stay in line and under my rule. That leash just so happens to be food.
So, while I still had the spirit, I added something to the bill, "But I'll let you know when and in what quantities to keep the land arable and fresh."
Though I'm speaking to her through the simple grass manifestation of her will, I sense her give a feeling of confusion.
And I'm right. She asks, "You wish me not to give it my best?"
I shrug, "Your best produce sure but not your best bulk delivery, if you catch my drift."
…
…
She doesn't, "Yes, yes I want you to be subpar with the food when I need you to, trust me, this all works in your favour."
