I'm honored by their faith in me. Now it's up to us as a group to confirm that their trust isn't misplaced. I'm already trying to piece together what I could possibly say to Kara to sway her. I'm going to have to listen to her side of the story first. 

The table is heaped with various platters of food. I feel a pang for Razz. He'd absolutely love this. My plate ends up being comprised of the more tropical dishes laid out to sample. There's different fruits and tree nuts with various sauces. Jalen seems to have the exact same tastes but doesn't give a second thought to manners as he reaches across and starts shoveling things on his plate.

I gently tap his hand and shake my head to him when he looks back at me. "Karnariel will you pass that platter in front of you please? Thank you." I set the plate Jalen was reaching for down next to him and whisper.

"All you need to do is ask dear. Remember chew with your mouth closed and for creation's sake don't talk with you mouth full."
