(Okay, now I will give a real post. Sorry for the delay!)

A couple of hours later, it was dinnertime, at last. The family and guests were seated around two tables, the children sitting at a smaller one by the side, while the adults were at the larger central one.

Dinner was a rather sumptuous affair, with several courses of meat, a thick stew, salad, fruits, and all the bread that one could eat. Kos took some of the meat and passed it to Larek. Veax passed some of the fruit to Hermia while munching on some bread, a bit uneasy at the large crowd. Larek passed some sliced tomato and cheese to Nyx.

"Enjoying yourself?" Larek asked her. He noticed that Caex had been with Avera and Auryn for quite a while. Then again, he was a husband and father now, so family matters had to come first.
