章 673: Chapter 672: Coping Mechanism (1)*

The Countess gently shook me awake, the Elven woman looking down at me with pursed lips and slight worry in her sapphire eyes, but after I sat up and gave her a tired stare, she nodded silently before placing a wooden tray on my lap.

A bowl of soup, some fresh bread, and a small plate with a few thin fillets of fish sat atop the tray, and the Countess said "Julie has more than enough for seconds if you want, Kat. You need to eat before going back to sleep..."

I stared at the meal in front of me for a few moments before nodding, taking the spoon and dipping it into the golden broth, filling up the bowl of the spoon with a few pieces of fish and spring onions, as well as carrots and peppers too, which made the entire meal 'warm'.

The Countess watched as I drank down the mixture and went for another, nodding to herself again before standing up, saying "If you want more, just ask; the door will be open until Jahi or one of the others gets back, alright?"
