Synopsis

Romandro, a guest from the palace, arrives at the manor and immediately questions the food situation, noticing the lack of fresh produce. Ian, having synthesized reconstruction information, informs Romandro about the food supply being strained by the presence of soldiers and the need for tax exemptions. He suggests trade with Merelof for food. Romandro reveals that he has reconstruction funds, capable of securing two months’ worth of food, indicating he has more resources than expected.
