Mana made some refreshing drinks with mint and lemon, and she also baked some light snacks with fresh flavours that would aid in settling one's stomach and easing nausea.
King Corvus watched her potter about the small kitchen with interest in his dark eyes for some time, and then offered to help her wash fruits and knead dough and other small things.
Mana looked up at the monarch of the Obsidian Kingdom in surprise. "Grandfather, do you know how to cook?" she asked curiously.
I'm back! Thank you everyone for your wishes - unfortunately, I'll still be a bit slow until mid-March, it seems.
But I do have a coin code for my readers - here you go: ABABHDR4V8NQ3JUA. So, another one got a WPC bronze prize - and this is the reward. A few tries should still be left.
Special thanks to Snowraven for the inspiration capsule!!
Also thanking Lady_Legacy and Alma_Dilworth for the ice-colas!
I'm very, very grateful for all the gifts, and thank you so, so much! You've made me feel so much better!
