As the tea and food is brought out, Kronid looks down at it, thinking to himself. What could his play be here, exactly? Mesmerize them so they think he has eaten? Sneak from his flask of deer blood?
No, all too risky, especially with the house itself watching his every move. Time for his least pleasant gambit. He doesn't take from the plate or the tea, being very polite - he is a guest, after all. He will let them serve him what they deem appropriate.
He looks up with another charming, tight-lipped smile. They're cute, really. Too bad he means to eat one of them.
"A little of both, honestly. I got very turned around out there, and then I happened to hear sounds of people, echoing off the mountains at just the right angle. I followed them, and here I am."
