Dinner went smoothly, with meals designed to provide the nutrients their bodies needed. Even Hugo and Dracon's group were satisfied, happily eating extra servings.
At first, the newcomers were hesitant to go back for seconds, worried there might be a limit due to the large number of people and the strain of serving three meals a day. But after seeing the Winters' men helping themselves to three or four bowls of rice without issue, they followed suit. Their concerns faded, and they decided to work harder to earn their place.
Kisha, after spending the day training and brewing potions, was both tired and hungry. She ended up eating more than usual, and Duke, ever doting, happily served her extra portions without hesitation. Watching the couple interact so lovingly brought joy to the elders, especially the Patriarch, who was grinning from ear to ear.
