Book Entry

~Boiling Devilish Love~

This soup is almost always offered to those who order meals at restaurants in the Mamono Realm of Lescatie. This dish belongs to the home cooking of Lescatie and has the meaning of "Love for You". As the name implies, it is prepared based on "love for your husband." It is also called "Mamono Realm Pot Stew" in Lescatie. To make it, many different seafoods are placed in the pot, such as fresh demonic fish brought to Lescatie from the country of waterways "Court Alf", mamono realm squid called "Makaika", "Mussels in closed shells" and other gifts of the sea that your spouse likes. Roasted vegetables and mamono realm tomatoes should also be added to the dish. And even if said ingredients are roughly thrown in, the flavor of the dish will still be adjusted to "That Love That You Have." You might get the impression from the description that this is a very rough dish of demonic cuisine, but of course it's much loved in Lescatie. And there are good reasons for that, one of them being that the taste of Love-You-Bes is familiar to the men of Lescatie.

In the past, many men in Lescatie were soldiers of the Order, and many of these warriors of the Church were often assigned to ships to escort expeditions across the sea. When a ship came into port, the ingredients that each of the soldiers received at the port were poured into a common cauldron that heated them. The resulting "roughly" stewed food was a precursor to Love-you-bes. On difficult missions when it was necessary to cross the sea, the food the soldiers ate to heal their exhausted bodies away from Lescatie, let's face it, could not be called "Yummy!" Yet at such times for a brief rest, the male soldiers of Lescatie chatted with their friends, laughed at each other, and ate this dish whose unforgettable taste became part of their memories. And often they joked, "I wish my wife would make this dish one day." The Mamonos, who had become the soldiers' wives, once heard these words and put their whole soul into this dish for their husbands, chopping all the ingredients well, and so came this flavor that is now loved by all the people of Lescatie. It also came about because many of the male soldiers underwent a naval expedition as a rite to elevate their status by getting rid of their past - the errand boy.

In the understanding of the Mamono, both those who lived in the former Lescatie and those who settled in the fallen Lescatie of today, this dish must have a special meaning for their men who were soldiers in the past: with it they try to convey their love for their husband. And if you like to dine on the national cuisine of Lescatie, many restaurants offer cooking classes in the preparation of Love-you-bes. As they say, it is the results of the labors of those who took part that are served at these restaurants. Although one sometimes gets the impression that Love-you-bes is gourmet dish, in fact most of these soups are the most common "home cooking" and "creative foods" created by soldiers on military campaigns. Nevertheless, a large part of the population of Lescatie is very fond of Love-you-bes, because its taste reminds them of the old days. In addition, when one spends a lot of time on this food, that is, taking a long time to prepare it, one can have more fun while having a conversation with one's beloved. Ahead, after a meal of demonic food, thoroughly saturated with that which "fascinates you," you will have to spend even more time on it. After all, one of the main characteristics of Lescatie's food culture is that it is all built around sex.
