Late is better than never
With Moikai's arrival, my diet was completely changed. It felt like I was back in the realm of Gluttony, with every meal containing rich mana.
At first, I was horrified at how much each of my meals cost. The ingredients were stuff that were found in auction houses or specifically procured, and Natha had to build a new warehouse just for them. Each portion was probably costing the same as the meal for all the vassals--or even the rest of the castle.
But then, Zia cleverly told me I should think of it as spending money for Shwa, and for some reason, the guilt and dread vanished just like that. Uh-huh, the mana was for my child anyway, so what if it got a bit expensive?
