A Small Rest

-----

We had a celebration feast for our small victory, the people of the duchy were feed, cleaned, and given new clothes, and promptly sent to Darkage as soon as possible, we didn't wanted to take care of deadweight, as harsh as that sounds.

As for food, we had what we could hunt around here. There was a small D Rank Dungeon filled with Direwolves, Salamanders, and other critters, which my Vampire Spirits hunted and brought. We promptly butchered them and roasted them.

I prepared a few fancier meals, such as meatloaf, some burgers, and of course, everyone's favorite, noodles with meatballs and tomato sauce, with parmesan cheese on top. That even made the grumpy Chris smile happily.

I honestly felt a bit bad I made him upset, so I put some extra effort into making sure he smiled after eating something tasty, he's my precious friend and comrade after all.
