The delicious Wind Goose sat in the creaking, swaying carriage.
It was one of those large carriages, the interior space vast enough to seat eight people in two facing groups.
Now, the delicious Wind Goose was alone in the carriage.
The sofa seat opposite him had been removed, replaced by three rows of two-tiered wooden crates; to his left and right, one large wooden crate each.
Inside each wooden crate were twenty-four bottles of counterfeit "Honeyed Lips," the standard two dozen.
The real "Honeyed Lips" was a medicinal honey wine handcrafted by the Black Tower's transformation Wizards, renowned not just for its rich, sweet taste without being greasy, but also for its special effects on virility and beauty.
As such, its price was inflated significantly.
Of course, like all foodstuffs claiming to have "some curative effect," its medicinal efficacy was not particularly pronounced.
The reason for its high price mainly stemmed from its scarcity.
