Senshi here with an announcement the old hands were likely looking forward to, and that I know the new folk will find interesting.
With the weather turning colder, sea monsters - leviathans, kraken, and the like - are gonna start getting hungry and ornery, fattening themselves up so they can sleep through the worst of the cold.
In typical Flotsam fashion, we made this problem into a solution: the annual monster hunt and winter feast.
What can I say? Leviathans and Kraken both are good eatin' - Leviathan tastes something like a cross between fatty tuna and a good beefsteak, while kraken meat is great in takoyaki, steamed in a light vinegar sauce, or in a king-sized calamari fritta. That's why we've been making them the guests of honor for our winter feasts, the star of the show and the center of the table.
Which isn't to say that we aren't going to need a whole bunch of supporting cast for this performance - it's our last chance to put on a really good feast before we need to start leaning on pickled, salted and jarred food for the winter.
I plan to participate in the hunt, of course, but I'm also planning to cook up a huge storm. And, well, for prey and a job this big, I can't do it alone.
Who'd care to join me in making this a hunt and feast to remember?
