Out in the kitchen area, Erick was toasting bread to go with the marmalade he found in Mira's cold fridge. He was hungry and Mira hadn't shown up in the kitchen to make anything for him to eat yet.
Living on Azure was a bit limiting. Mira's house did not have enough space to hold a full staff to do all the chores that needed done. This meant they all had to do certain things for themselves. It was something that an Emperor like him would have never had a chance to do in all his royal life.
But to be fair, it wasn't as if he was useless in the kitchen. He could make a few small things if they weren't too hard.
Like toast.
Mira had yelled at him the last time he tried to make bacon and eggs. He couldn't blame her. He had destroyed one of her good frying pans, the kind that Mira had insisted didn't stick.
