[QUOTE="Daztur, post: 5831502, member: 55680"] This posts fleshes out the Glass River Winery (05.04) a bit more and adds one more hex. Abdul does indeed treat his customers fairly, from his own point of view. Humans require two things from their food and drink: pleasure and nutrition and Abdul provides both of them. It just so happens that the pleasure comes from subtle illusion magic and the nutrition comes from a wide range of food sources that, for reasons Abdul fails to understand, humans have some reservations about. The larvae of many insects are incredibly high in protein and long term storage of meat in vats of yogurt is an excellent way to preserve it. As for what the "wine" is actually made of, it is best not to know. Despite Abdul's honest intentions, some of his customers sense that something is amiss, but lack the means of piercing his enchantments in order to discern what it is. Some of Abdul's night-time regulars are able to tell what the other customers are actually eating, which is a great source of humor among them. Although there are no vineyards in the area, Abdul is able to purchase supplies from a nearby source, the Castle of the Poor Brothers (07.04). This castle was built by an order of monks on a rocky tor that towers over the surrounding countryside but it has since fallen into the hands of the Delasar family. Travelers who pass by the castle note its extensive and fertile gardens, which produce far more large coarse vegetables than are needed to feed Lord Delasar's small retinue of servants and men-at-arms, even when his sales to Abdul are taken into account. Hooks: -Where is the rest of the produce of Lord Delasar's gardens going? Is he feeding some thing(s) hidden away in his castle? -What happened to the monks who built the castle (the Poor Brothers)? -How many of the horrible rumors about Lady Delasar are actually true?
