"Ah!" Tiffany hadn't expected her own family to be included in the arrangements and immediately voiced her objection, "Why this arrangement?"
"Rest assured, I will have someone prioritize their protection and ensure their safe arrival as much as possible."
"No, why do we have to go outside when it's so safe in the city?"
"Ah," Lance sighed heavily and then explained, "You should know that most of the Empire's grain is produced in the central plains. With the current situation, everyone has fled. Even if rain eases the drought, there's no one to cultivate the land. It's fair to say that recovery within a year or two will be difficult.
Now, every place has some grain reserves to rely on. Can you guess what will happen after some time?"
Tiffany fell into thought, processing Lance's words. She seemed to understand the situation they were facing.
