This time, it wasn't a food truck; it was a mobile classroom. Mara, with Nyra acting as a translator and an assistant, held the first of the cooking orientations.

They would buy the raw, mana-rich produce in bulk from the Genesis Garden, using the collective credits of their people. They then distributed the food to individual households.
