"Oh, Grey, you’re speaking my language! Food and rest, definitely sounds good to me," Razzec says with a wide grin, clearly excited at the thought of a good meal.
He looks around at the rest of the group, a hint of mischievousness in his eyes.
"I’ll admit, I was hoping for a little more time to catch up, but hey, better late than never, right? We’ve got the yackles all sorted, and if anyone wants a break, I’m all for taking turns!"
He pats the third yackle he’s brought along, giving it a quick scratch under the chin before giving everyone a thumbs-up.
"So, what do we say? Shall we get moving before we lose the sun? Or do we need another round of ‘meet the yackles’?"
He settles back with a relaxed sigh, leaning against his yackle, content to let Charles take the lead on when to start and stop breaks.
Charles' grins widely when he sees the conjured food and immediately gives a smile of thanks and grabs a grey nutrient block. He chews thoughtfully and makes a face. "Uh this is a pretty amazing thing but..." he clears his throat "there's something to be desired there. Uh, no offense meant. I mean, it is absolutely miraculous and will be very useful soon. Maybe just," He digs about in the supplies and pulls out a box of salt and a strip of dried meat. He sprinkles a bit of salt and shaves a dusting of meat on his block then gives it a bite. Nodding, he offers up his food supplements.
OOC: In my head conjured food tastes like plain tofu, or bread that was baked without sugar or salt.

Alexia comes back to the group for food. "What should I name him?" She points to her yackle. I'm thinking Star. She grabs a block of food and eats it without making a face. "I've had worse food, but I've also had better food. Could you pass the salt?"

Ember flits over once the wagon is chocked and the yackles are given feed bags.
"Charleshas the way of it. If you don't have a mage that can use Prestidigitation to make the food warm and perhaps 'tastey'... always carry a pouch with a selection of herbs, salts and peppers." Ember takes a small block of gray 'stuff'... and tries a bite. Hiding his motions with his body, he slowly puts the block back down on the table and conjures Goodberry
Ember will pass out a goodberry to each person... just to cap off their meals. As he passes Alexia, he smiles -- "Star is a wonderful name. Best wishes that Star lives up to their noble name."
"Thank you!" Alexia takes the berry and tries to toss it and catch it in her mouth.

Razzec settles down for a bite and can definitely tell why Charles has the spicy pouch. "It definitely leaves much to be desired in terms of flavor but having been a soldier previously, this is better than the trail "rations" they dang near had to force feed us to keep us going."
He gracefully takes the goodberry and eats it without question. "I might just stick to these when they are available."he says with a slight chuckle.
Grey enjoys his cheese. "Tastes like cheese to me" he says with a shrug. "Better than most of the dwarven food I grew up on. We'll, except for displacer beast. They are very tasty."
He puts the berry into a pouch for later and thanks Ember for it.
"I enjoy riding in the wagon, you all can continue to ride on Star and the others if you like."
Ember starts as a wandering bee stings him. "Trying to get my attention, little one?" He moves away from the campfire to see where the little flyer might have come from.

Ember flits about the area; following the bee as it seems to bee leading him back to the hive.
Once 'discovered', Ember's knowledge of bees and hives allows him to understand why he was stung. Seems this particular hive had generated too much honey which was endangering the hive. Ember knows what to do. He will make a fire which generates clouds of smoke which will be directed toward the hive.
In addition, he will speak to the hive -- Animal Handling: 23 - letting them know he is not an enemy and is trying to help by removing the excess honey and comb plugs.
Ember will remove as much excess comb and honey as he can. (( using his mess kit to hold all he can ))
Grey says "Ember, here, take this" and hand hims a goodbery "for the bees", then subtley casts Guidance on Ember as they touch.
Grey goes back to lying in the grain, looking up at the sky. Those who were inclined to look at Grey, may notice he is sketching something, ... and smiling.
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
Alexia asks for a bit of the honey, and feeds it to Star.

"I’m curious what this wild bee honey might taste like. I’ve heard it can vary depending on what they forage on... Wonder if it’ll have a touch of something sweet or... maybe a little bit of earthiness."
Razzec raises an eyebrow, clearly intrigued by the potential flavor of the honey. He leans forward slightly as he continues, looking out toward the horizon.
"And as for that giant snail... well, I’m just glad it didn’t decide to make us its next meal. Who knew those things could get so... big?"
He chuckles to himself, shaking his head in amusement.
"I can't recall if it was in the feywild or somewhere else but I once met a travelling merchant who used a giant snail as his mount and shop. It was big enough to take reins and a bridle but also had a small cabinet with nooks, shelves and more to hold all his wares. It did not travel fast but it got him pretty far." Ember continues to build upon his story for several moments to delight the round eyed Chip.
Over the course of the next couple of days, you all begin to notice that Charles doesn't seem to be as cheerful, he smiles but his eyes look worried. If questioned, he says he's just becoming tired, old age and all that.
At night he cooks up a pot of beans and bacon with hard bread and cheese on the side. "Magical food might keep you alive, but you gotta have real sometimes, you know? The water though, that's priceless."

Ember is able to harvest a good amount of honey and beeswax - a few pounds worth.
