🙥 Mosbear Soup 🙧
Standing taller than any human or Daeva, the bipedal Mosbear is an impressive and defensive beast. Living in temperate forests and swamps, up to the freezing cold and snowy slopes of Beluslan, they are the apex predators of their domain. Thick skin and make their muscular bodies quite hard to pierce. Their pelts grow especially dense and in some species quite bristly around their neck and shoulder area. In cubs this still outgrowing fur stands up like a mohawk. Some Mosbear types grow large tusks, while all of them, no matter their sex, possess one or two sets of horns reaching adulthood. Despite their feral and fierce appearance, that might suggest a rather simple mind, Mosbears are said to be intelligent, when not hunger driven. One mosbear in particular is reported for even fighting alongside Daeva, to get rid of invading Balaur, suggesting this individual also being a few hundred years old.
Beside tales and legends, Mosbears serve a quite down to earth use for humans. Skin and hide make for durable, protective and insulating clothing, as well as carpets and tents. While heads can be fabricated into caps and trophies favored by hunters.Tusks and horns find their use in accessories and decoration. Their slightly sweet meat is rich in vitamins, iron and proteins, though knowing how to prepare and cook it is essential, to not only end up with a tender, but also free from parasites meal. In parts with a dense population of Mosbears, they can even become the main source for a nutritious food source. In fact their meat is so valuable that it will be prepared in the main cities' taverns. There their soup, or rather stew is on their every day manu.
For this their roasted bones and aromatics such as seasonal root- and bulb vegetables are simmered with seasoning for one night's stay, before deglazed with Kirka whine to create a rich broth. The bear's meat is then seared up and browned, salted and peppered, before also declared with whine, joining the broth in its pot for three to four additional hours.
Ready is a hearty, tonic soup, satisfying guests, customers, humans and Daeva alike!
