[Royal House: No recovery momentum.]

Lux stared at it for a few seconds, one hand wrapped around his coffee cup, the other holding half a croissant like a tired king holding the last edible evidence of civilization.
"Okay…" His voice came out rough. "Good enough."
[That is a generous summary.]

The puppet maid returned with more food.

Several.
Eggs. Meat. Bread. Fruit. Soup. Another coffee pot. Something grilled that smelled like redemption with salt. And tea.
Lux watched the food arrive with the reverence of a man seeing an army reinforce a failing kingdom.
"Good," he murmured. "Very good."
