A mundane object from another world becomes the key to survival in a dying land. As a trash can begins supplying vital resources, a desperate struggle unfolds to save a crumbling kingdom from total destruction.
my prince the land is ready but our grain was burned what's left won't last through the winter we will starve before spring i already thought of that you have more gifts just some basic food catch these white stones are falling they are massive
It is not stone. It is rice. Cut one open! The inside is soft and pure. Rice? Is it edible?
Yes. Boil it in water. One piece can feed a family for a month! I possess nothing to offer in exchange. It's all right. We're friends, Julian.
A friend from another world. I am honored. My prince! The barbarians returned! A hundred thousand men!
