As you probably know, I'm doing an entry on the Kyrattin Cattle. One of the reviewers asked me to indicate grasses that the Kyrattin like to eat and that are found in their area of the world. I found two that seem to make sense to be there the Alth'ho and the Pfepper grass. I've checked the list of grasses in the compendium a few times and couldn't find any others that naturally seemed to fit in that area. I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions for me on this.

Thank you

I'm not sure if the cattle would want to eat pfepper grass.  That's a spicy plant. Altho grass should be fine.  However, they'd probably also eat stuff like the Faberige plant,  Redberry bushes and likely the leaves of some trees, such as the Red Birch.  You could say they eat grain (of any kind, really) and hay too.  They don't have to be restricted to just grasses.

Hope this helps!

Loop grass?  Wean grass?  Off the top of my head (without looking)....

There really should be more grasses, as from their diversity come a great many other resources!

Oh, cows love clover, and I'm pretty sure we have a clover plant - sacred to Eyasha, isn't it?  Trinity Herb, perhaps?

Are Shabby and Dek the same person in my mind.  Strange.

Ah yes, forgot to point out to Shabakuk that Chapter 5 is ready for testing - will do so now!

I am pleased it is going well for you though Seeker ... can't wait to try it and die. :D
18 May 2012, 09:35:13
No, I didn't Seeker. :( I think it is Master Anfang who is doing the testing

Dek-   shoals is going very well.  Art is starting on chapter 6. A very important chapter.  Did you test chapter 5?

Waiiiiiit!   (Bard staggers back with a pile of Unfinished Projects so high her arms are trembling)  Let me stuff mine in there before you lock the room!  *looks guiltily around and snatches the Quenyss parchment off the top of the stack*

and throw the key into the deepest river we can find, or the midst of one of the volcanoes
13 May 2012, 03:19:29
Then I say we lock the Unfinished Projects room.  If Arti ever gets in there.... big trouble. rolleyes

I'm amazed you can see the Altario projects pile considering it is dwarfed by my unfinished projects. For which I apologise.
