>Maybe Anny could teach you how to cook.
Sitting next to Anny, you watch how she prepares the food.
The principles are similar, but you don't understand the ingredients.
You ask about it and she patiently guides you through the steps, letting you help her.
The fat used to prepare the dishes is salty so you have to add herbs to mask it.
And the different meats are prepared in ways that do not combine well with some recipes.
There are also many meats that are bitter if you don't prepare them with vinegar.
You spent a couple of rations on your apprenticeship but feel confident that you've made progress.
(Learning Cook skill (1/2))
[the group has 26 Rations now]
the conversation ends up being about farm animals.
"I was born on a farm actually. We had anzus and we grew wheat." she started telling you.
"Anzus?"
She gave you a description of a chicken-sized griffin, bit odd.
"The meat is good, but if you want to enter the world of cooking, the best would be beef. The problem is getting it, since few raise animals of that size."
"How big are they?"
"Hildra could use them as a horse and have space for another person."
"There is also a demonic animal that is raised. Sheep."
It's a little hard to hold back laughter.
From all they could have said, sheep being demonic is a bit absurd.
"Are they carnivorous or something? Why are they demonic?" you asked her.
she shrugged
"It's just an animal that humans started breeding. I don't know where they got it from."
"And people just have them?"
"They are very convenient."
So you are trapped in a fantastic world and the most normal thing is the sheep.
fantastic.
“Let’s go back a bit, how did you end up here if you were raised on a farm?”
“Farms are terribly boring, so I went out to the world for a bit of adventure.
I think this was enough so maybe I will go back.
Not sure what I will tell my parents. What about you? Big plans?”
“No, just getting ground between me and the inquisition.”
She looked at you trying to ignore the voice in her head that blamed her for your situation
But no words came to her mind, so she returned to watching the fire.
