[QUOTE="megamania, post: 7186338, member: 9255"] THE HIDDEN: BEYOND NEW WATER 01 WORK COMMUTE SEGMENT 102 “PASSAGE INTO ELDEEN: PRELUDE PART IX” 7/18/17 VULT 21, 996 SHARN, BRELAND “I had that dream again Talmeo. This time I know the title also- “Salt or Pepper, Rat or Bug” “What kind of name is that?!? “I was thinking about traveling to Droaam” “Damned Gnolls were here again. Business had such better clientele on the islands.” “Yes they were hear but no- they don’t even like bugs.” The halfling puts down his knife and leans on the table. “Very well. Travel. Explore.

He traveled with a real Valenar war clan for a short time. He made many discoveries and a few mistakes (Harpries don’t like the suggestion of sampling their eggs) and decided that Trolls are truly disgusting creatures with terrible eating habits. He would spend a few months at various restaurants and groups sharing his knowledge and theirs. He tried to avoid sharing alchemy with most groups. Alchemy is only for blowing up things to most groups in Droaam. However, he did learn of an awesome recipe for soup that was so acidic, it burned flesh and cloth. It was an gargoyle seasoning mishap. VULT 6, 999 Ziggy returns finally to Master Chef Talmeo’s restaurant. It has moved and has become much more up scale. It is located in the upper reaches of the towers near Morgrave. The explorers come here with money and empty stomachs after months of eating road rations. They compare notes and recipes. Some intrigue Talmeo. A desert spice made from lightly fried cacti could be perfect for his roasted potato recipe that is so close to perfection….. Ziggy decides to spend some time at his restaurant and relax a bit. Decide where to go next. Back to Droaam? Xen’drik? VULT 12, 999 “For the end of the year I will be moving on.” Says Ziggy as he is cutting up the roots and spouts. “Where to?” “West again. Eldeen maybe.” “Why there? The creatures there were dangerous enough but now barbarians and fiends run throughout the woods. Dragons and storms also. Why there?” asks the halfling mentor. “Why not?

It is Ziggy he wishes to see.” Slightly embarrassed, the changeling shuffles towards the door. He feels bad for his mentor. He feels as if he has taken something from him. It is past time to move on. Gillard leads the changeling cook to the table. There is a half-elf male dressed in fine cloth and silk with bits of cultural pieces on a necklace and wristband. Across from him is a bald human with black leather and pieces of dark metal on it. “Master Viorr Maelak may I introduce the chef of your meal- Chef Zigland.” Maelak looks up and seems surprised that Zigland is not only a changeling but doesn’t mind allowing everyone to know this fact. “This Peasant is most excellent.
