Week 1: Nourishment
Assignment 1
Think about ways the theme of Nourishment affects your world. Do people generally have what they need? What happens when they don’t?- Scarcity leads to illness, unrest, and crime: Dashan only needs a dry year and problems will start, possibly giving the revolting Followers of Ilak a push.
- Lack of food drives exploration or war: Namoria and Technocracy of Magramine need to import a lot of food. If they do not get it, they have a problem.
- Preservation methods affect survival.
- Food rituals unite or divide communities.
- Dangerous food sources create heroes or legends.
- The search for nourishment inspires myths and quests.
