Prompt #38
Write about your muse's favorite food. Describe a complete dinner from their point of view.

Mmm. Hastily prepared herbal soup. Roasted rabbit. Cold water if we're not lucky, wine if we are. Sometimes there's even chocolate. Such are the dinners (well, any meal, really) of the Betronett rangers.

See, we spend most of our time away from the camp. Our patrols bring us to all sorts of godforsaken places. There was once when we pursued a host of bandits all the way into the Cragstone passes in the dead of winter, where we had to live on wolf meat and increasingly mouldy bread for a week or so - not that we complained, since food was just about the least of our problems that time.

I loved every moment of it, though. I still have to smile when I see overcooked rabbit meat, because it reminds me of all the good times I had with my comrades years ago. Good company makes the lousiest food bearable, see. (But sometimes good company brings the good food with them; Hiraen's favourite thing to say was, "You should never go anywhere without chocolate!")
