DRACOROOT,
THE
The Dracoroot is an extraordinary plant, apparently
absorbing the warmth and sunlight
during the hot season and allowing it to trickle from its roots during the
harsh winter of the far northern lands, keeping small patches of the
ground from freezing and thus allowing other plants to live through the
merciless cold. It is also a delicious spice, prepared in many dishes,
sweet or not, used in teas as a medicinal preparation and rumoured to be
used in the elaboration of a powerful healing potion by the
ulvur.

allot a field for.

BREATH")
The Khmeen
is a common plant with year-long or two-years-long reproduction cycle and which
prefers temperate or subtropical dry summer climates. - Khmeen can be found
everywhere where winters are not too severe and soil too
watery. Khmeen seeds are the main part of
the plant used (as spicery as well as for medical use), although the entire
plant is edible. Khmeen seeds can be found almost in every kitchen and to bake
darker bread (that from wholemeal flour) or cook a stew without it is nearly
unimaginable.

PFEPPER
PLANT,
THE ("PFEFFER",
"FIRE
GRASS")
Growing
all over Sarvonia, where it is neither too
wet nor too cold, the Pfepper Grass (Tharian), "efér'echár" (Styrash)
or „Emesz'Batuk“ (Ashz-Oc) is an
unspectacular grass, but well loved, because its seeds provide cooks with an
easily accessible, moderate hot to hot spice. It is similar to the more
expensive, imported peppercorn, which borrowed its name from the indigenous
pfepper seeds. Though it is common, it is not cultivated like wheat or
bredden grain. For reasons unknown the tilth of this
plant is never very successful, despite the relatively simple needs of it
concerning soil or weather conditions.

throughout Santharia and is said to bring
good luck.
