I'll pick some tea and cakes for the staff working at the logistics tent too," Freis replied, having to take out her notepad and add the note about almonds being in short supply as the druid went ahead to continue with her baking. It was hard to refuse Astra's request to do some baking in the camp, since it meant more of the flour was consumed in the cakes than was originally projected. It however improved the overall mood of the team and helped keep fights to a minimum so Freis requested for an adjustment in the projection of needed flour in the camp. And almonds. She figured that the expedition team would perform better should certain comforts be provided despite being out in the wilds, especially so since members of the nobility were also within the ranks.<br/><br/>Packing away her notepad, Freis could not help but glance at the tent where the illusionist lounged all day. She figured it was better that way rather than Ria being absent from her tent. The Folovan noble was a prodigy when it came to illusion magic and she possessed no other peers in that aspect. Ria was known to be a particular difficult individual to handle on account of the fact she couldn't take no for an answer - one way or another she'd get her way in a matter. She took a deep breath and went on to the mess tent. The team in the logistics tent were working the whole day so it's worth giving them a break over tea and almond cakes.<br/><br/>Kael and Liam were already seated at a table, joining Amelie and Kashi. It's a start for sure - the more people they were acquainted with meant less people would think ill of them. That would mean less trouble for Freis to fret over while she ensured the expedition ran smoothly. A request at the mess' captain allowed the Folovan mage to leave the mess tent with a tray holding a kettle of piping hot tea, some cups, an almond cakes. She took them back to the logistics tent to share with the members of the expedition there.<br/><br/>Freis admitted in her thoughts that the pastry was good - warm and comforting to the taste and paired well with the tea. It gave her some respite over the tensions of the day, renewing her focus to deal with what else the evening could throw at her.
