The Empire's food supply is now extremely strained, and even the noble's tables are missing many of the delicacies of the past, transforming indulgence into a mere means to fill the stomach.
Thus, even under the name of the Eldest Princess, the amount of food that can be allocated is very limited, and what arrives is barely a drop in the bucket, insufficient to keep people from starvation.
Despite being harsh, for the Empire, the best way to handle these people right now is not to handle them, waiting for them to starve or die from illness, eliminating the problem altogether.
Because, for the Empire now, there are indeed no more energy or resources to save these people.
Even for Perfikot, tackling the problem here has become quite challenging.
Solving the food issue is relatively easy; Perfikot can apply the compressed biscuit-making technology used in the Northern Territory here. While not promising to fill their bellies, it can keep them from starving.
