FARRA ISLE TRADERS
"As we march toward peril's hearth, our kinfolk at our sides
Each step could be our last - or first, toward kinder skies
Our spears we don, and fight till dawn
To guard the grounds we've stood
But won't have won till battle's done
And stays that way for good."
~The mountain region of Farra Isle is a harsh and unforgiving place, with treacherous cliffs and unpredictable weather. Located in the eastern part of Farra Isle it's oftenly plagued by the abominable Crawlers that lay waste to caravans and settlements alike. Since Farra Isle is the western front of trading missions something had to be done.For that reason, a diverse group of merchants and traders, banded together for the common goal of securing the trading routes that led to the Bitter Sea. And thus the Farra Isle Traders alliance was created!~
~We are a friendly alliance dedicated to trading and providing supplies. Feel free to engage in business with us!~

Crawler Steak
Hear! Hear, ye I say! What kind of madman would ever turn a monster into...a dish? His cart was adorned with a simple, yet intricate wooden carving of a giant caterpillar, a damn crawler. The creature itself was a terrifying beast in its natural form, capable of devouring a small village in a single night. Yet, when Barsum Ironfoot's deft hands and masterful cooking techniques transformed it into a steak, it became a delicacy that could win the hearts of even the most discerning of palates.
Now hear I say! It begins with the meticulous selection of a fine crawler speciment. Cut the steaks thin, almost translucent, to allow for the rich flavors of the marinade to penetrate deep into the flesh.The marinade itself is a mix of exotic spices , parsley , rosemary and pear cider. A few pieces of onion to add some extra spiciness. Meld them in thy cauldron for half an hour. Afterwards dip the steaks in the marinade for ten minutes straight and prepare a fire. Ye need a low fire to slowly grill the steaks , keep them tender and juicy. You shall know when they are ready when the flesh will be dyed in a golden hue. Serve alongside creamy mashed tubers or some fine fried mountain shrooms.
