Kar’nem Stew

Mor’drath kar’nem,
bileth ur’gar,
phoros mar’gul.
Uthrath, carne che non muore.

Instructions

1. Awaken the Meat
   • Leave the kar’nem in the open air for a night so the “Rot-Wind” touches it.
   • Hack it into uneven chunks.
2. Build the Mud Cauldron
   • In a cauldron, mix mar’gul mud with bile (ur’gar) until it forms a thick, bubbling sludge.
   • Heat slowly until fumes sting the eyes.
3. Add the Meat
   • Drop in the rotted meat.
   • Stir clockwise only—counter-clockwise is said to “let death escape”.
4. Feed the Decay
   • Crush the mordrath bulbs and let their spores fall into the stew.
   • Add thorn-ashes and the ladle of Eternal Fat.
5. Simmer for Hours
   • Cook until the meat stops dissolving—legend says this means “it refuses to die”.
6. Serve Thick
   • The stew should be nearly tar-like.
   • Whoever eats it becomes slow but unstoppable, muscles knitting even while burning.
