In my story, the demonic NiNe clan can only gain sustenance when given food from others. They can eat food that they themselves had caught or stolen and they can taste it, however they will never feel full and gain the needed nutrients. Hence why it's important that they find partners early in their life. No one knows why the NiNe are like this but many theorized that their ancestor was an Angel who was cursed to seek aid from others to help them be humble. Nonetheless, thanks to this, the Clan is more notorious for trade and marketing, despite their malevolent appearance. For Winter, this only applies to him partially. Since he's part human, he can eat and sustain himself without the need to be 'given' food but, receiving it helps him feel rejuvenated and more full if he were to hunt for himself. Here, when he and his mother were kicked out of his father's estate when the latter figured out their true origins and with Winter being too young to properly hunt, his mother was slowly withering away. Eventually too weak to hunt for her son, Winter's mother plucked the last of the fruit in her hair, giving them to Winter before finally passing away. Although risky since the fruit is normally poison to non-NiNe clan members, Winter was able to survive long enough to be found and adopted by Plutero.
