"How are we going to gather rations?" asked Eric, concerned about the method the caretaker had very graciously supplied to them. The method involved cannibalism, which the survivors desperately wished to avoid committing.
However, if they didn't, it would definitely result in death due to thirst or starvation. It wasn't a choice but the only option. It had barely been a day, and many survivors had already shown symptoms of weakness and dehydration.
Also, some had murdered enemies and preserved their corpses, which the sane ones found suspicious.
It wasn't yet a dire situation, but it soon would be. The threat of death loomed over the survivors' heads, causing continuous stress that simply worsened the situation.
"We have to eat the other survivors," Roxie admitted, as if totally fine with the arrangement. As a Fire Dragon, she had little to no qualms with eating humans or any other species since it would only boost her powers.
