Improvised Spices

Meat, meat! Big, raw, juicy pieces of meat! Come to papa... Stop! What are we, goblins? We shouldn't be eating raw meat... Let's barbeque it... Don't look so down, we'll have plenty of time to tear up that web! My people in Kania have a saying: "A war is a war, but don't forget about dinner!"
All right, I'm going to start a fire, while you go look for some herbs. I recall there were some spicy roots growing around here - bring me back a dozen. And salt... we need some salt... Oh, I know! The local crocodiles lunge at everything in sight, but the moment anyone fights back they start crying large crocodile tears. Collect as many of those tears as you can and get back here. We'll cook ourselves a nice meal, treat the Tekyan dame and maybe even that undead nerd... erm... I meant the esteemed Nomarkh Koses. With our bellies full we'll handle Tep with one arm tied behind our backs!

My mom makes the best barbeque in Lightwood. If we survive this - you must come and visit!

Ooh, this is so yummy! And even if it's not real barbeque, who cares?! Bon appétit!
