As Elias worked tirelessly on improving magical tools for kitchens, the king paid another visit to his restaurant. This time, the royal entourage brought a sense of urgency.
"Elias," the king began, his tone uncharacteristically somber, "I have a favor to ask. The northern regions of the kingdom are facing a crisis. Crops have failed, and the people are on the brink of famine. Your culinary magic could save lives."
Elias' heart sank at the news. He nodded resolutely. "Your Majesty, I'll do whatever I can."
With the support of the Magician's Guild and the adventurers who had become his close friends, Elias set out to the north. He carried with him supplies, recipes, and his magic-infused tools, determined to bring hope to the struggling region.
