Kalon 2022 Winter Festival Prompt 3

Dion was woken up the following morning to the smell of a delicious breakfast. She arose with a smile and put on a fresh winter outfit before heading downstairs. The main hall of the inn was bustling with hungry patrons. Dion began her mission to find food when a small kit ran across her path.

The kit turned to look up at Dion and grinned at her before asking a question and then moving on to another patron. Dion chuckled, pondering the question as she picked out what she wanted to eat.

The thought that the Winter Cryptid might have certain tastes in food made Dion smile. In terms of soup and pie, Dion sure knew what she preferred. Her adoptive parents were good soup makers. Hakim especially had a way of making even bland soups taste fantastic. But Dion would always be a desserts girl.

She had learned to bake even before she'd been adopted. It was a great way for her to destress, something she'd carried even into her late teens. Pies were an easy way to brighten up not only Dion's day, but everyone else's day too. Maybe a good pie would brighten the Winter Cryptid's day?

Then again, maybe soup would be better for a beast that lived out in the cold. Soups warmed you up from the inside, and could make even the worst weather tolerable. If Dion lived out in the wilderness like the Winter Cryptid did, then she was sure that she'd prefer the soup.
