Chapter
7: Feasting
The
main marketplace in the Nevarian capitol teemed with life from all over the
sector, and Ylana only recognized a fraction of the species they encountered as
they walked. The Nevarians ran many of
the shops and food stands they passed, and the odors of exotic roasting
vegetables and meats teased Ylana’s senses so much that her stomach began to
rebel.

Noticing
the obvious allure the food held over her companion, Nara pointed to a particular
stand. Pointing to the rotund,
blue-skinned occupant, who was adorned in a flowing gold robe and an abundance
of jewels, she said, “This is N’Goteth, and he’ll have you feasting for days on
the amazing food he makes.”
As
Ylana began to peruse the various breads and soups N’Goteth had to offer in his
cart, Nara leaned over and whispered in her ear, “He also hates the Kryllians
more than you do.”
Soup, what a good idea.
