If he concentrated, Naros could recognize the enticing smell of some spicy dish he'd once tasted in a Thedale market, as well as the sweetness of a dessert originating from a remote village in the Warrenfall Hights. He was a tad too far from the third box to discern a specific scent, but he had to assume it would be equally exotic; They really were going all out on the worldwide buffet.
"Should we come back after we're done, or is there some kind of schedule?" he asked, nudging his box.
"You can if you want, or we can find some other task for you if you're still up to it afterwards. The Mother doesn't *need* the food. It's more of a distraction, so there isn't a schedule or meal-time that we need to follow." answered Caillu.
Naros nodded, grabbing his tantalizingly aromatic package by the strings holding it together, heading to The Matriarch's cavern once more. As an ex-merchant, he was used to resisting the allure of his merchandise, but he could understand how someone would succumb to the temptation. Meanwhile, Kinosa trotted behind the box-carrying trio as they made their way to the designated drop-off location, "I don't know if I should be offended that I wasn't offered to bring anything." she said with a frown.
Naros rolled his eyes at her, putting the box down long enough to voice his opinion on the subject, "We both know you would have refused." he said good-naturedly.
"Of course, I would have," she said with a scoff, "still stings..." she muttered under her breath. "Anyway," she added, louder, "I'm sure I'll find *other* ways to help." She couldn't help it; she just had to throw a sinister smile at the annoyingly perceptive runner when his lady friend and Whirl weren't looking.
This was going to be *fun*.
