Omen Valley

Omelet of Schendian gull eggs

[23:02] Aphris Myoo finishes her meal and gives the platter back to Nadi
[23:02] Alecto Orli (dikori): Tal lady Aphris
[23:02] Nara Zsun: tal Master smiles good to see you
[23:02] Alecto Orli (dikori): Tal nara ,nice to be with you
[23:02] Nara Zsun: Takes the platter an dirty cup from the mistress....
[23:03] Aphris Myoo: Tal Alecto, how is live in Kargash. Have the Alar thieves left you any thing or did they steal all metalware"
[23:03] Nara Zsun: rising taks them to the kitchen to clean up
[23:03] Alecto Orli (dikori): smiles at the pretty kajira
[23:03] Alecto Orli (dikori): I have no dealings with the Alars
[23:04] Aphris Myoo: "Good, because they are not trustworthy, they kills slaves. Their women do, and they are know as thiefs. Watch them carefully
[23:04] Nara Zsun: quickly fills a basin with hot water swishing in some soap chips....takes a sponge an washes the dishes
[23:04] Alecto Orli (dikori): The life in the village has been hectic due to a companionship ceremony which took place a short while ago
[23:05] Aphris Myoo: "aaah nice" did an Initiate led the ceremony or a magistrate?
[23:06] Nara Zsun: dries the dishs listening to the free chatter. Puts away the things where they belong an returns to the Masters boot to be of service
[23:06] Alecto Orli (dikori): I can't tell you the details as I missed it myself
[23:06] Aphris Myoo: "aaah ok, probably just signing a contract with witnesses"
[23:06] Alecto Orli (dikori): but the grand scale of the ceremony ,indicated the presence of many guests
[23:07] Nara Zsun: waits quietly to be of service should she be required
[23:07] Aphris Myoo: "then they had a party afterwards, thats good for celebrating with friends"
[23:09] Savanah Lacourte is online.
[23:09] Alecto Orli (dikori): Lady Aphris while coming from the village I have brought you a small gift,knowing how much you love to cook new dishes.....
[23:10] Aphris Myoo looks up surprised "thats nice of you" she says smiling
[23:13] Alecto Orli (dikori): I present you with a basket of eggs and and sa tarna bread
[23:13] Aphris Myoo takes the basket filled with eggs from Alecto, and beams a broad smile "aaah , nice big eggs, those are good to bake an omelet for you and the other men"
[23:14] Nara Zsun: smiles
[23:14] Nara Zsun: MMm sounds wonderful
[23:14] Alecto Orli (dikori): I hope you and the other residents of the camp enjoy the dish you create
[23:16] Aphris Myoo: ÿes, i will make work from it, she inspects one of the eggs "those are bigger then the vulo's we have here, maybe they are from another bird. I will let an ornithologists look at them, but the taste will not be different"

04:29] Aphris Myoo takes the eggs Alecto has brought from the coast and wonders which bird they are from, they are not vulo eggs, there for they a little to big. She compares them with the eggs of the River Gull, and notices they are about the same, only the spots of the scale have a different pattern
[04:36] Aphris Myoo: She takes the egss to her wagon and takes some ornithology scrolls, she starts with Gulls., she looks through them and at last she sees the Schendian Gull, which lives ear the TaThassa coast, which is logical because Kargash is near that coast also

[09:39] Nara Zsun: Greetings Mistress....smiles up busy at picking berries from the bush she found in the pasture.
[09:39] Aphris Myoo walks to the kaijra picking red currants "have you found already much Nadi?"
[09:39] Nara Zsun: I am happy bosk don't like berries...smiles...they would have devoured this bush
[09:40] Nara Zsun: I have close to a bucket full Mistress...an there are still more currants on the bush enough to fill another
[09:40] Nara Zsun: shall I pick the second bucket or leave them for another day
[09:42] Aphris Myoo: "hm, we don't need very much for the omelette's but letting them at the bush will make them over ripe and then they could rot" she looks around to the river gulls "or the brids could steal them. Pick teh ripe exemplars, the little one's we can pick next week"
[09:42] Nara Zsun: yes Mistress, I am just about done...smiles...there should be enough for at least another week, perhaps more
[09:44] Aphris Myoo: "the berries we don't use for the omelette's we can make berry marmalade or berry juice"
[09:44] Nara Zsun: perhaps there are enough to make a jam for the outriders bread....or if lucky a bottle of current wine
[09:44] Nara Zsun: grins yes Mistress smiles brightly agreeing
[09:45] Aphris Myoo: "yes red currant wine or liquor is an excellent idea too"
[09:45] Nara Zsun: that is about all of the ripe ones Mistress, there are many still green,
[09:46] Aphris Myoo: "don't pick the green ones
[09:46] Nara Zsun: no smiles we will leave them to ripen..I don't think even the gulls would eat green currants.
[09:47] Nara Zsun: shall I take them to the kitchen to wash Mistress
[09:48] Aphris Myoo: "good idea Nadi, we will then make the omelette's tomorrow or friday. Or we wait till your master is back from his travel to the Tahari
[09:49] Nara Zsun: nods yes I will wash them an wrap them in a rep cloth to leave in the cool box until you wish to use them Mistress
[09:50] Aphris Myoo nods "my old motehr aleways use to pick bramble berry, and then we had to eat whole winter her cakes with berry sirup"
[09:50] Nara Zsun: standing an stretching her legs... picks up the nearly full bucket of current berries an heads toward the kitchen a happy swagger in her step, the sun beating down on her shoulders
[09:51] Nara Zsun: MMMM that is a good idea too....the Haruspex loves breakfast cakes with sweet syrup. Mistress
[10:19] Nara Zsun: pick up a large bowl....opening a drawer takes out a large rep cloth...and lines the bowl with it. Picking up the bucket of currants dumps them into the bowl. From the water barrel dips water into the bowl until almost full. Swishing the berries around with her hands.....pulls up the rep cloth draining out the water. Ties the top of the rep cloth into a bundle with a rence cord. Dumping out the water.....places the bundle of currants back in the bowl, an stores them in the cool box until the Mistress is ready to use them

[09:12] Mere (meredith.topaz) looks around and straightens up her dress. "Looks good," she says then laughs. "Ah!  Pleased to meet you, Dali.  What are you selling here?  I might be interested in doing some buying."
[09:13] Greylin (greylin.youngblood) waved to the woman that approached. "Tal, Lady. Welcome to Hochburg. I'm signing up the merchants for the fair, please let me know if you have any questions."
[09:13] Aphris Myoo walks into the market fair, ordering her guards to stay at a discrete distance. She leaevs the forest and enters the city with it's narrow streets
[09:13] Dali ຣρíяíʈσя (dalilah.lorgsval) cleared her throat. SHe'd glance a look over towards Grey that would verbalize that what she saw. "Eh! Tal, it is indeed a pleasure to meet you. Yes, Grey, what am I selling?". Dali had the commercial mindset of a goldfish.
[09:15] Greylin (greylin.youngblood) grinned and looked to her left. "You're selling jugs I believe, right?"
[09:16] Mere (meredith.topaz) chuckles and looks to Greylin for a moment then back to Dali. "If you are looking for the finest chocolate in all of Gor I have some here," she puts her hand on the box. "Good prices as well!  Just fifty coppers for the whole box. Then, there is Mere's Sweet Jam, the most delicous blend of berries you will find in this part of Gor."  Mere did love doing her sales pitches.  "Jugs?  What sort of jugs?"
[09:16] Aphris Myoo greets the market mistress a friendly "Tal"and greets the others also. I am just a customer normally i sell cheese, but they were to heavy to lift up so high in the Voltai
[09:17] Mere (meredith.topaz) chuckles. "That is what wagon's are for.  The roads are not that bad." 
[09:18] Aphris Myoo: "i arrived by tarn flight, taking a wagon would be take to long, I come from the vicinity of Turia, which is ten thousands of pasangs from here
[09:18] Dali ຣρíяíʈσя (dalilah.lorgsval) would slip behind the stall. THe caste thief didn't know a lot about selling things, but was of course very practiced in taking. So that stall was confiscated. "Oh yes, jugs", she said and place a few out on to the counter. "They are of marvelous quality as you can see, Lady". Forgetting that she was wearing a veil, but an awesome smile was behind it.
[09:19] Greylin (greylin.youngblood): "Ah your guards aren't much for carrying more than their swords, eh? Caste rules I'm sure. The Voltai? I recently went to Voltai Viktel. Are you from somewhere near there?" She snapped her fingers at the slave in the distance. She tried not to laugh about jugs but at heart, she was fairly immature and couldn't help it. "Amazing jugs" she chimed in helpfully. "Ah Turia, that's quite a trip!"
[09:20] Mere (meredith.topaz) watchs as a slave runs up with many sacks over his shoulders, putting them down by her and telling her that Ulric had ordered him to bring more coco beans. With a pleased look she counts the bags and grins, it would be a good day in the market.  "Coco beans!  Fresh beans for your most sinful of treats!  A steal at five silver for twenty-five stones!  Come get your coco beans at Mere's Mercantile!" 
[09:21] Aphris Myoo: "the guards are outriders, but they don't like carrying things, it;s above their status they think, work is for thralls they say. They only like drinking paga and fighting"she looks at the jam "what kinda berries are these? "
[09:23] AzlynPayne: greeting Mistress *runs to catch up with her escort
[09:24] Greylin (greylin.youngblood): Tal and welcome to Hochburg. I'm signing up the merchants so please let me know if you have any goods to sell or questions.
[09:26] Mere (meredith.topaz): "Ah, a woman of taste if you are looking at my jam," she says to the woman as she turns away from the jugs, she would have to lok at them more in a bit.  "I use the sweetest and ripest of mountain berries that grow in the mountain meadows around the city.  They are plucked by the most pleasing of slaves at dawn with the clear dew still beading on the firm red skin.  Each berry is judged to be fitting for my jam before it is made.  Here," she says as she takes a jar and opens it, putting a bit on a roughly carved wooden spoon, one meant to be used once or twice then thrown into the fire.  "Taste it.  You will be amazed!"
[09:29] Aphris Myoo hears the lady merchant praise her jam, and she looks grate full at the offer to taste some "mountain berries, thats quite interesting. I have had my slaves work long to pick berries at teh Plains, red currants, those are tastefull too. But mountain berries are good for the variation of the meals i cook." she has plans to bake some omelette's for the haruspices this weekend, and plenty of red currants "so please may i taste these deliciously praised berryjam"
[09:29] Dali ຣρíяíʈσя (dalilah.lorgsval) was still standing awkwardly behind the stall. She looked towards Mere, then towards Grey. Slowly she slipped away from the stall and then said, "Grey, it was a pleasure seeing you as always and Mere, it was good meeting you!". Giving the two a polite tip of the head, she'd then bolt with her three male guards towards the waystation.
[09:29] Greylin (greylin.youngblood): "Ah yes well, I'd hate to carry things as well." He stomach rumbled at the mention of all the food and she set a hand on it to quiet it. "And you Dali, Safe paths!"
[09:30] Aphris Myoo takes the spoon f the merchant woman and taste a little of the offered jam "hmm, delicious"
09:30] Dali ຣρíяíʈσя (dalilah.lorgsval) walked up towards Greg. Sure, she was about to break every couching law there is, but she just grabbed the slave by both cheeks, give him a smooch -forgetting about her veil- on the lips and then starts to wlak off further. THis time with more haste incase someone saw.
[09:32] Mere (meredith.topaz) pouts as Dali runs off, she had been interested in her jugs, but aas.  Looking back to her customer she grins now, the expression hidden by her veil. "I told you it was good," she brags.  "Just one copper a jar. A steal but I do enjoy a happy customer."
[09:34] Aphris Myoo: "a copper for a jar? "she is thinking how much time the slaves of her wagon camp used to gather the plains berries and makes a quick calculation. Slave labor is free of course, but that's only a fable, since they can earn a profit for the masters in teh time they picked berries. She concludes that it is a fair price and lays 2 coppers at the counter "i take 2 jars then. Asa variation to my own jam. The men will be surprised by the delicate difference in taste between the berries"
[09:35] Greylin (greylin.youngblood) pointed with her quill at the jug stand. "And please, take a look at my perfect jugs, so soft, you can touch. Maybe good for taking some goods home it. They are perfectly shaped."
[09:36] Greylin (greylin.youngblood): Most people would like a perfect pair of them. I give you good price for two
[09:38] Greg (noobothrallo) blinked as he walked into the village outside of the city and blinked. Through his eyes he saw what looked ot be a talk dark figure with breasts coming running at him, Hair blowing in the wind. With a masked hiding her features. Oh the horror as she came closer and closer before grabbing his cheeks and pressed her veil face against him. ' She's gonna eat me!' he thought to himself . But just as he was about to say something he came to terms with reality and blinked as it was all over just as fast as it happened. being a little confused he looked around and decided it would be best if he went to where thom lived
[09:39] Mere (meredith.topaz) beams at the woman and gets a sack to put the two jars in.  Taking the copper she tucks it away and then hands over her purchase.  "Thank you for your purchase.  I'm sure you will love it even more on bread or whatever you want really, it is just that good."  Peeking over at Greylin she studies her jugs with approval.  
[09:41] Aphris Myoo accepts the 2 jars in the sack of the merchant. she gives them to one of the outrider "take this, and guard them with your life or i let the haruspex curse you. It's his meal"satisfied she sees that the outrider accepts it and turns pale at her warning about the curse of the priest which often has a bad temper "thank you Lady of the gold-white caste, for this excellent deal for both sides"
[09:43] Mere (meredith.topaz) shivers at the thought of a curse and makes a hand sign to ward off ill luck.  "Curses, ah!  Troublesome things, awful things," she says mournfully as she looks around to see if anything odd was going on around her.  Heaving a sigh when she didn't spot anything right away she relaxs just a bit but remains vigilanet nonetheless.  "It was a good deal.  Please tell your friends about Mere's Mercantile and the deals they can find with me."
[09:45] Greylin (greylin.youngblood): "Tal Free!" she called across the way. "Perfect jugs, get a pair today. Special price just for you!"
[09:45] Vensius Minus (braxiusmalfor): grins, "Greetins Free"
[09:45] Selene Minus (ishianna) " Greetings " she spoke soft and warmly
[09:46] Aphris Myoo smiles "don't worry about the curse, the haruspex has only power over the wagon people"she does not tel that often supersttious free woman visit him, and are often forced to do hidious acts with the priest, something she as a free woman does not want to know of "ooh yes, I will spread word. I ama trade woman myself, normally i sell Kataii Bosk cheese and Plains liquor, the fabulous Arkhi (fermented bosk milk Mongol style)
[09:47] Mere (meredith.topaz) spots Dante and waves at him, then looks to the others with a keen look in her eyes, that look being pleasure at the potential of more customers.  "Tal all!" she calls out to them then looks back to Aphris. "Ah! The plains drink. I had a debate with a man about which is stronger, sul-paga or this drink from the plains. What do you think is more potent lady?"
[09:47] Greylin (greylin.youngblood) picked one up and held it aloft "Best quality. You can touch. You've touched jugs before, no? But maybe not ones this smooth. Even if you have a pair at home you can never have too many jugs, that's my motto."
[09:49] Aphris Myoo hears the question of the Lady "well, sul paga is forbidden at the wagon people. Suls' grow beneath the ground, and all food like yams potato, carrots are forbideen for us. Nrmal paga is made of grain, that we can have, grain is after all originating from grass, and what the bosks eat, we can eat also"
[09:52] Mere (meredith.topaz) nods, she had not known that about the plains people. "Ah, interesting indeed.  Hmm, well, I have seen people pass out from one sip of sul-paga, so I think it is stronger.  Like water to m of course," she brags, having risen high since her days an utter poverty she was still able to handle the potent brew. "Was there anyting else I could tempt you with? I have some fine chocolate here.  Fifty coppers for the whole box, a steal!"

[10:56] Aphris Myoo: well, I go bake an omelet
[10:58] Hakimba Oakleaf: ahhhhh that sounds good... an omelet would be good
[11:01] Aphris Myoo walks to the kitchen shanty and takes the Schendian gull eggs out. She then takes a ceramic bowl and breaks the eggs above them , she sees the bowl being fileld with teh egg mass, and nods satisfied, she adds some salt. She circles a whisk through the bowl to get a nice even yellow white color
[11:03] Hakimba Oakleaf: nadi could you get me a horn of paga please?
[11:04] Nara Zsun: yes My Master....moving his hands from her belly....stands and moves quickly to the kitchen....A horn of Paga for My Master
[11:06] Nara Zsun: Reaching up on the shelf, takes down her Master's favorite horn....running a finger around the rim...checks it ....wiping away her finger prints...leans down opening the cask of paga, pours the horn full.
[11:06] !!***VW***!! No Idle Time Workbench: toast has been removed.
[11:06] Aphris Myoo searches the shelves for a cooking pan and finds one. She stands at her toes and takes the pan. placing it at the fire burning. She throws a cube of bosk butter in the pan and let it melt brown yellow. During the melting she takes the bundle of red currants from the cold store and the jars of nountain berry jam she bought in Hochburg
[11:07] Hakimba Oakleaf sniffs as the scent of the hot butter fills the air
[11:08] Horn of Paga: refreshing
[11:10] Nara Zsun: holding the horn close to her stomach returns to his boot.
[11:10] Hakimba Oakleaf smiles at his girl returning with his paga
[11:11] Aphris Myoo takes a big spoon and fills the baking pan with the egg mass till the bottom is covered. She waits till the upper crust is solid. she then covers the omelet with the mountain berry jam, and double ups the sides of the omelet over the berry jam. she let the eggs bake some minutes more
[11:12] Nara Zsun: slowly falling to her knees....thighs wide for his approval holds the horn to her belly pressing the rim tight against her stirring emotions, lifting it brushes across each nipples feeling them pucker, lowers her head kissing the side with a passionate kiss, whispers.....May this paga nourish an warm your heart My Master
[11:12] Aphris Myoo: "Nadi, is here some where white sugar?" she asks the slave
[11:12] Nara Zsun: yes Mistress one moment Please looking at her Master
[11:13] Hakimba Oakleaf takes the horn.. sniffs at it .. the mix of her kiss with the aroma of the paga is overwhelming .. drinks a big sip
[11:13] Horn of Paga: refreshing
[11:13] Nara Zsun: may I assist the Mistress My Master
[11:14] Hakimba Oakleaf smiles... it is perfect... you may help Lady Aphris
[11:14] Hakimba Oakleaf: yes
[11:14] Aphris Myoo looks in the boxes near the kitchen and makes a lotta noise, at least she finds what she seeks a Kataii and a Tuchuk branding iron. She brings the 2 irons to the fire and lays them in, warming them a bit. Not heating like being done for the regular branding of fresh slave meat
[11:14] Nara Zsun: thank you My Master is my pleasure always to serve you ....rising scampers quickly to the kitchen
[11:14] Horn of Paga: sets the empty horn down
[11:15] Nara Zsun: here Mistress in this large ceramic jar, to keep the sugar dry.....this one is white sugar...the other jar is yellow sugar...but there is not much of it left
[11:16] Nara Zsun: kneels close to the Mistress extending her hands with the jar of white sugar
[11:17] Hakimba Oakleaf practices his skills in keeping balance
[11:18] Nara Zsun: smirks watching her Master walk the length of the log ....
[11:18] Aphris Myoo takes the cooking pan from the fire, placing the omelet at a plate. she let the pan return at the fire and fills it with teh second portion of eggs. She then takes the sugar jar of the waiting slave and distributes the white sweetness over the just finished omelet at the plate
[11:19] Nara Zsun: sniffs the air...the smell of the omelete making her belly rumble....watches the Mistress with great interest
[11:20] Hakimba Oakleaf feels his spit flowing richly
[11:22] Hakimba Oakleaf sits down again
[11:22] Aphris Myoo places the sugar jar at the grass and gives Nadi the other jar with the mountain berry jam "spread it over the omelet the moment the crust is hard, then fold the omlet so the jam is covered by the egg"
[11:24] Nara Zsun: yes Mistress....taking the jar of berry jam, with a silver spoon spreads a good amount of the rich sweet jam over the omelet. then carefully folds it over not wanting to rip or tear the beautifully cooked eggs
[11:25] Aphris Myoo takes the warm Kataii branding iron from the fire and presses it in the sugar covering the omelet, ornamenting it with the bow sign, so all can see this is a kataii product.
[11:25] Hakimba Oakleaf: mmmmmmmm ... these women are trying to get me hungry... with always this scent teasing my senses
[11:25] Nara Zsun: oh smiles....how delicious an clever this is Mistress...smiles up at the Mistress
[11:26] Aphris Myoo nods satisfied when the slave puts the jam over the eggs. She herself takes the bundle of red currants Nadi had picked another day. She makes a circle of berries around the omelet and places some extra at the top for the final decoration
[11:28] Nara Zsun: licks her plump rosy lips, looking at the wonderfully cooked omelet. A real work of art. Grinning at the Mistress admiringly
[11:28] Aphris Myoo takes the plate with the eggs and red currants "bring this to your master and serve him". She then concentrates at the second omelet
[11:28] Hakimba Oakleaf #s eyes get wide open as he has heard he will get the first omelette
[11:28] Nara Zsun: licks her plump rosy lips, looking at the wonderfully cooked omelet. A real work of art. Grinning at the Mistress admiringly
[11:28] Aphris Myoo takes the plate with the eggs and red currants "bring this to your master and serve him". She then concentrates at the second omelet
[11:28] Hakimba Oakleaf #s eyes get wide open as he has heard he will get the first omelette
[11:29] Nara Zsun: yes Mistress...taking the plate from the Mistress's hands, grabs a rep cloth that is holding some utensils, moving swiftly to her Master before the food chills
[11:30] Hakimba Oakleaf: as his girls gets closer the scent of the omelettes gets nearly endulging
[11:31] Nara Zsun: settling to his thigh....opens the rep cloth, handing him the fork...sets the plate on his lap...smiling up at him....Look what the Mistress has created My Master....a gourmet meal for an outrider
[11:32] Hakimba Oakleaf: mmmmmmmmm takes the fork and cuts a first bit from the omelette... .. starts muncing... murmurs with a full mouth.. tasty really tasty sits at the log and winks his girl at his lap
[11:33] ƬΣΜỮĴƗŇ (derrek.scatter) is online.
[11:33] Aphris Myoo let the second omelet flow at a free plate and spreads the sugar over it like the former one. She takes the iron again and brands the Kataii sign again. After which she distributes the curreants over and around it.
[11:35] Hakimba Oakleaf puts her on his lap feeding her some bits of the omelet
[11:35] Nara Zsun: licks her lips watching the Mistress cook. Looking up at her Master a broad smile curling her lips as he devours the omelet
[11:36] Nara Zsun: MMMM sticking out her tongue to receive a bite of the omelet...rolling is on her tongue tasting the currants, jam an sugar.....moans softly before swallowing..
[11:36] Hakimba Oakleaf playfully shares the tasty omelette piece by piece with his girl... grinning because she looks so happy
[11:36] Aphris Myoo repeats the procedure for the third and fourth omelet, with this difference that for Kutai, she heats the sugar with the Tuchuk bosk horn brand, and that for Alecto, the sugar is not branded at all, since he does not belong to a specific tribe. She only adds some blue mountain jam on top of it, since he is trying to become a scribe"
