The next morning, Ewan woke up very early. Naturally, Asher Ryder had already left for the farming area, leaving Ewan alone snuggled in the blankets. Thinking about what happened yesterday, he could not help but blush, his cheeks burning. But anyway, they had already done more intimate things, helping each other out with their hands was no big deal...
With that in mind, it took a while before Ewan finally crawled out of bed.
This morning, he still had to check the vat of fern root water from yesterday. Ewan went out to take a look. The fern roots in the vat had almost completely settled, the water and starch separating. He poured out the murky water, washed it, and changed the water three times. After a few more hours, the water in the vat was completely clear, revealing a thick layer of white starch settled at the bottom.
By this time, Asher Ryder had also returned.
