The palace cafeteria had been put on lock down so Sunshine and Nine could not eat there. Being that they were palace guests, they were given food coupons to enjoy anything that they wanted in the restaurants or eateries that were close to the palace.
Nine was overjoyed. Any opportunity to escape the confines of the palace, even for a single moment was welcomed greatly. As the palace guards transported them out, he chattered on about the sandwiches.
"Can you imagine it, bread!! They live under the sea so you would never expect them to eat bread because it would get soggy and all."
Sunshine sighed.
Nine's mandibles parted wider, forming something that looked like a smile. "The best bread they have is made from Saltflower nectar, pearl grain and red seaweed. They add sea crust essence to create a crispy crust. Mmm, mmm, mmm, you have not lived until you have tried it."
