Yue Yue huffed, still eyeing the black mud outside the tent door. She wanted to test her powers! But Han Soi was already busy.
He pulled out a self-heating lunchbox...one he had prepared earlier and opened it.
The rich, savory scent of food filled the small tent, a sharp contrast to the rotten smell of the forest outside.
"Eat," Han Soi said, placing a small piece of meat in front of her. "Once you are full, I will let you look around, but stay close to me."
Yue Yue looked at the delicious food and then at the "mysterious" soil outside. She decided to eat quickly. The faster she finished, the sooner she could start her secret gardening project in the middle of this death zone.
Han Soi sat cross-legged on the floor, watching Yue Yue with an intensity that could melt ice. He had come prepared.
