Notes
A hardy temperate field crop grown chiefly in the broad arable land of Shining Reach and Forgegate, and sold north and south from there. It asks little of the soil and less of the weather, and it is planted in rotation with Graen because it returns the ground to good heart. Sold by the Baelk as seed. What is pressed from it is Oevrei.
