Toz and the cats wanted to take it slow while eating the fish just in case they were bad or would make them sick and so they wouldn't eat everything at once. But each fish gave very little satisfaction to their hunger, and before they knew it, all of them had already eaten several.
Thankfully, it had been a relatively large group of fish that attacked them. Even if they gorged themselves and satiated their hunger, they would still have enough to last some time, hopefully until their next encounter with void beasts or something else they can eat.
After eating their fill, the group could finally rest peacefully without being disturbed by the pangs of hunger.
The much-needed food and rest had Toz full of energy, and after waiting for the cats to wake up so he wouldn't interrupt their dream, he was ready to begin his second refinement.
