Begorian Rock Salt

Begorian Rock Salt is a variety of salt mined from under the Begoria Mountain Range. Unlike salt harvested from the shores near Cincini, which has a flavor tinted with the air of the sea, Begorian Rock Salt is mined from deep below the earth, Where ancient lakes have dried up and left their sediment behind. While salt's uses across the Mortal Lands have been extensively documented, Begorian Rock Salt is unique in that its raw, freshly mined form is just as useful, if not more, than its processed variation.
 

Crystaline Weights

While they are hard to get due to Walker's Canyon standing between the Begoria Mountain Range, The town of St. Fiule has found great use for Begorian Rock Salt... as table weights. The reason comes from the heyday of the city as a port of trade for the western Mortal Lands. Cincini's latest round of trade embargoes and taxes had forced the price of salt to skyrocket, and St. Fiule was desperate for alternatives until the Dictator of the Cincini Isles could be replaced. Merchants from Cailar, having made the perilous journey across the Canyon, brought with them several crates of Begorian Rock Salt. The mayor of St. Fiule was intrigued; by buying the salt in blocks, their stores could hold out for longer and they would better withstand Cincini's embargoes. An initial purchase was made, and the salt blocks became a new staple in St. Fiule.
  After the Night of Falling Crowns and the ancient weather devices left by the Memoria went haywire, artisans took the larger salt blocks that were traded and carved them into forms that could span the table and slot into holes, holding the tablecloth down against the gale-force winds that would unexpectedly blow across the river. Their natural geometric shapes were also pleasing to look at, adding a bit of flair to tables that otherwise could not have much in the way of decoration.
  The cafe owners, however, do not recommend licking the rock salt.
