Well it could have been much worse, sir. Though we were given enough food to last for seven years during our time in the tower. We weren’t able to find that many food sources during the journey, it was quite a miracle that we didn’t starve greatly on our way here.

(Maleen had no idea what does that spice jar contain at the moment, though she should have known well that the jar is not like the others in the pantry and she could have tried to take it out if it weren’t for somebody knocking on the door out of desperation.

Knock, knock, knock

Who could be behind the door right now? Alastor better convince her to open that jar right away before somebody (spoiler alert, it is the insecure bride) comes right through.)
