The Slaughterhouse
The SlaughterhouseIn two neighboring houses on a back street close tothe Toad’s Square lays The Slaughterhouse.
One is the actual slaughterhouse, the other a tavern that Can take about a hundred guests at the long tables.
The menu mainly consists of offal – heart, liver,stuffed lung and various pasty stews.It is cheap but not the least distasteful, and if youare prepared to pay more there is newly butcheredfine meats to order, slow cooked or sautéed in sun-yellow butter.
Were it not for the vile rumors circulating, the owner of the Slaughterhouse, Master Morlam,would have even more guests at his tables. Hemutters that it is his competitors who claim thatsome of the meat he is serving is waste from the Abomitorium – not only mare cats, jakaars andwild boars but also goblins, ogres and a few barbarians.
But as long as the proud Master Butcher refuses to comment on such claims the rumormill will likely continue to grind, not least sincethey are based on a fair question: what happens tothe remains of the creatures killed during fightsin the arena? Mixed Stew 5 ortegs Hash Patties with turnips 2 shillings Stuffed Lung with Black Mash 4 shillings Slow-cooked Prime Rib with stewed carrot 5 shillings King’s Steak in gravy 8 shillings Tankard of stut (unspecified) 3 ortegs Glass of Blackbrew (unspecified) 1 orteg
