A feast at Kana's dining hall: "Here they were given a feast of a whole roasted kethna along with a selection of vegetables and wines calculated to please a wide variety of palates that had been gathered. It was generally conceded by everyone except Kana that the feast was, indeed, the most successful part of the evening." The Paths of the Dead, paperback, Chapter the Fourteenth, pg 138-139. A late night snack from Roaanac and Malypon's kitchen: "After their daughter had retired, Roaanac and Malypon sat in the kitchen and ate soft rolls with good butter and the crumbly, pungent cheese of the region, along with dried figs, followed by hardtack, which Roaanac always ate because he pretended it would keep his teeth strong. All of this was washed down by fermented apple cider, made from apples out of their own orchard, strengthened by the extreme cold temperatures that could be found in the winter by a short trek up the mountain--" The Paths of the Dead, paperback, Chapter the Fifteenth, pg 144.
