Honey-trapping the princess

"I cannot overstate the importance of food in the current, early stage." 

Leading the princess towards a smaller, secondary storage field, I eagerly started with the explanations. 

As per the terms of peace, she was to oversee the takeover of the war captives and ensure they were treated fairly. And the food scheme was just the right way for me to convey to her the very spirit of our thinking. 

"This is the food that we will feed everyone in the first few days," I soon introduced after bringing the princess over to one of the crates and prying its cover open with a crowbar I found lying around. 

The crate's insides were filled to the brim with neatly stacked rows upon rows of columns of small cans. Each of the metal containers was roughly the size of a man's fist and contained a portion of a meal.
