Ren furrowed his brow, struggling to wrap his head around the situation. "So, you mean to say you've managed to survive on minimal food for a century?"

Nori nodded, her mouth full as she chewed on another piece of meat. "Yep, that's the gist of it."

Elena couldn't hide her confusion. "Hold on a minute. If you can survive for a hundred years with so little food, why is there even a food crisis here?"

Nori took a large bite, choking slightly on the meat. Without missing a beat, Princess Lorelai smacked her firmly on the back, causing Nori to cough up the chunk of meat.

Unfazed, Nori continued eating, her voice muffled by the food in her mouth. "Surviving isn't the same as living. Yes, we can scrape by, but it doesn't mean we won't die. Our village has been dwindling away. Children and leaders are dying every day. We're running out of food, and water has become a rare commodity."
