 Mohloki are fed an articulated slop called “compe” which comprising the crappy bits that don’t go in the Pripi: commercially harvested stocks and bonds, bones, brains,  testicles, hallucinogenic juice of wilding fungus mushrooms which are designed to be, or at least give the impression of being,  super nutritious — but periodically are riven with toxins and bacteria causing sudden, widespread bouts of dissentry, meningitis or even death.

No details were left unspared. When, at length, the Salomoné came under fire from a rival army from Carpathia, it was overrun, the citadel sacked and the area left for ruins. Salomoné was in time lost to archaeology, but in the excavations in the aftermath of the Lehman debacle, traces of the ancient settlement on the very same spot were revealed.
