Balthazar has been out, looking for something he can cook in his room, either as a treat for Roi or just something different for himself. He was fortunate enough to find a market of sorts, and one at which he could use coins rather than favors to buy food. He's returned to put preservation spells over the perishables, since he has no refrigerator, but he's quick to notice the box by his fireplace.

He sets his bags down on the bed and approaches with caution, folding back one of the flaps. "Hello? Is there someone in..."

He breaks off as he sees the kitten, struck speechless. Oh, my.
