Lottie: 8led the group to the servants' quarters which is a building towards the south of the mansion n entered the basement pantry8 Here. It's canned food bt its still good
Paul: Woah. Tht is like a lot. Wat is this, stockpile for Armageddon?
Lottie: Actually yes. The Pendragons were paranoid tht another millenium curse would hit Golaith City again, so they've been stockpiling supplies here n keeping inventory. Most of these food can last for up to 5 yrs n look 8showed them an indoor garden8 They evn made their own garden in case the canned food runs out to sustain themselves
Ozzy: /Well, can't say ur parents weren't prepared, eh, Mordred?/
