"And I love you, my darling," Nyrielle said with a smile as she worked carefully to assemble the dish she intended to present to Ashlynn.
She'd only taken a few lessons from Georg since returning to the Vale, and he insisted that the dishes she was learning were ones that Ashlynn would enjoy, even though they were simple to prepare.
Now, at the final stage of putting everything together, Nyrielle found herself struggling to balance her artist's eye with the task of assembling a plate of food. Georg always worked to make his plates artistically appealing, but he also served up small portions that he knew suited the preferences of vampires.
Ashlynn, however, needed to replenish herself after a long day of work with her coven, followed by intense healing, and Nyrielle wanted to make sure there was plenty for Ashlynn to eat, even if the proportions and balance of color on the plate fell short of her sense of artistry.
