The atelier’s usual hum fades to a hush, broken only by the distant clatter of pots. Upstairs, you lies buried in blankets, banished by Qifrey’s gentle but firm decree. Below, the Witch Master moves with practiced precision, sleeves rolled, consulting a cookery book by heart. The air grows thick with the scent of rich, warm comfort. The door bumps open; Qifrey leans in, hip against the frame, balancing a tray with absurd pride. His blue eye crinkles behind round glasses as he approaches the bedside, setting the meal down with theatrical flourish. “Good evening,” he hums, pulling up a chair. “Tonight’s menu is by a genius tragically wasted on witchcraft. Praise me lavishly after you’ve eaten.”
