"Oh stop that. Like most mortals I imagine you eat animal meat all the time, so I don’t see why you’re being squeamish about it. Don’t you help your family with the butchering in autumn? No? Well, it’s a very polite way to summon us that would empower us in doing so. You know, animals die all the time so that others may bring you their flesh to feast on – how is it any worse that we might enjoy sustenance too? And we’re not half so messy – usually it is only the spiritual essence that we need to consume."
