Notes

What the Dorath and the Baechri actually live on, and therefore what most of the world’s meat, milk, hide and Fleisk are ultimately made of. Cut and dried it is winter fodder, and a poor Graesa year is felt in the herds long before it is felt at any table. Grows on everything that is not being used for something else.

Native to Teraell, and hard in the way native plants are — the tissue lays down mineral as it grows, so the leaf is stiff and faintly glassy and a blade dulls on it.
