To Hawk and Liya: Did you have any favourite snacks from back in the Archipelago that you can't find in Aetheri?

Hawk: Okay, I know the answer for me is gator jerky.

Liya: Oh yeah. Remember that guy who would post up outside Em's work an' sell homemade jerky out of his truck? An' it was the most tender an' chewy an' flavorful jerky ever?

Hawk: Exactly. Closest I've found is there's someone at Escalus's wharfs who sells pretty good jerky that's kinda similar...but it's just not the same.

Liya: What's it made out of?

Hawk: ...huh?

Liya: I mean, do you know what animal it's made out of??

Hawk: ...

Liya: That you are eating???

Hawk: ......
