Inevitable Reckoning

⟬ The Dungeon Gardens, early evening. ⟭ 

Lionheart Hero Ravidius had a predilection for fish. 

Tycondrius tried not to think about how... stereotypical of a cat-person that was. 

Stereotyping too often could... lead him into an embarrassing situation. 

However, the way Tycon prepared fish... he was certain it would appeal to a wide variety of palates. 

...cat-person included. 

Tycon applied a liberal coat of dried, stone-ground corn to thick-cut slices of Ravidius' freshly caught catfish. 

He seasoned them lightly.

Then... he deep-fried them in vegetable oil until they were a beautiful gold. 

The sides to complement the main dish included fried okra, a short-pasta slathered with three types of cheese, and heavily-buttered potatoes sprinkled with crisped bits of pork fat.
