Lawful Encroachment

Carolyn's POV:

Spreading out from this shop as the center, at least seven out of ten shops had signs that read 'Foreign Cuisine' or 'Exotic Flavors', among these foreign dishes, more than half were human delicacies.

"What's wrong, Aunt Carolyn?" Yarin tugged at my sleeve and asked, "Is something bothering you? You look so serious."

Only then did I realize that I was frowning, and the reflection on the glass window made me look like a bitter woman.

Clearing my thoughts, I smiled at the kids and said, "Nothing, just didn't expect that old shop to close. It's a bit surprising. So, what do you want to eat? This place has changed so much since I last came here. My previous experiences might not be useful, so let's casually explore and see if anything catches our eyes and taste buds."
