Oroy Mansion

Oroy Mansion is the residence of Lord Oroy in Umbriel.

Infernal City
Most of the food prepared by Qijne's kitchen goes to the staff and slaves working on Prixon Palace, Oroy Mansion and Ghol Manor. The grounds workers of the Oroy Mansion like everything burnt, unlike the workers in Oroy Mansion. Still getting used to her job as a cooker, Annaïg proposes Slyr to grill some birds for the Oroy Mansion. She burned, braised, roasted and seared the food.

When Qijne sees that a complete catfish is being sent to Lord Oroy, she inquires why they decided to do such a thing. They had cooked that fish for Oroy Mansion workers hundred of times before, but it would be too coarse for the lord's palate. Annaïg explains her that she hoped it would surprise Oroy: when the lord touched it, the fish would release a series of odors viandic; the fish would liquefy and mingle with the void and fire salts there around the fish, which would then release their essences. The fish would be followed by a cold broth of tadpole bones garnished with live frog eggs. Finally, the white froth of Terriswort would cause his palate to vividly recall each aroma and taste—but in reverse order. Qijne thought that Annaïg's metagastrologics were just tricks and stunts, but she allowed her to practice them as long as she pleased Lord Oroy.
