Mab Okra
Anyone familiar with the Fae Wilds understands one golden rule: never accept food or drink from a fae without first making a deal. However, most people are unaware that this rule becomes even more deadly when it comes to the infamous Mab Okra.
These strange vegetables purple okra with dazzling blue seeds are uncommon, attractive, and dangerous. Eat only one, and you'll have a memorable flavor: slimy, slightly crunchy,unnervingly delightful, and unlike anything mortal tongues are supposed to taste. For some, it's the most fulfilling dish they've ever eaten, but also the final thing they ever consume freely.
Consuming Mab Okra provides you with superhuman abilities like as resilience to cold, increased physical strength, and increased assertiveness and aggressiveness. But the cost is high you have just willingly sworn allegiance to the Winter Court. No favor. No bargain. No exchange. Accepting the gift means becoming the gift.
Unlike traditional fairy cuisine, where a favor must be reciprocated in like, Mab Okra binds your fate directly. From that point on, you are a subject of the Winter Court, bound by its rules and wants. The most terrible part is that Queen Mab will pick your purpose, place, and who or what you will serve.
That is what the tales tell, and the old traditions warn us. However, no one has ever witnessed a Mab Okra and lived to tell the tale. So, no matter where you are, if you come across a purple okra with blue seeds, don't take the risk. Because you don't want to know what happens when Queen Mab comes seeking for you.

Summary
No one knows exactly where the Mab Okra myth started. Historians have sought to trace its origins, and some daring or foolish scholars have even made bargains with the fae to discover the truth.
Those deals rarely go well.
Inquiring about Queen Mab frequently results in a costly and uncertain price. In fact, there are some that believe the fae themselves are spreading the stories, perpetuating them through tales, songs, and whispered warnings.
That as more legends and fears exist in the mortal realm, the Fairy Realm becomes more grounded and stable within the metaverse. If this is true, then every new story is more than just a myth; it is fuel.
Queen Mab may be watching.
