Sky Worldbuilding: Food in the Valley of Triumph
Tumblr media
I’ve finally started again on the Sky Food series, and this time I’m back with the Valley of Triumph! Read about the food below the cut :)
The food is very similar to Daylight Prairie, as both are more mountainous regions. However, the food in Valley tends to use fewer fresh vegetables and more meat (they do like having these ingredients though, so farmers from Prairie often sell their wares in the markets here).
There’s a lot of grain-based foods, as it’s one of the few crops they can grow at these altitudes. They’ve got farms where they grow grain and herd mantas in areas below the Village of Dreams. These rural communities enter town to sell their wares but enjoy the solitude and scenery of the mountainside.
Vendors crowd the streets, selling snacks for excited moths, tourists, and those arriving for the Valley’s many events. Bhel puri and similar dishes are some of the most common street food (this is in no way influenced by me being obsessed with bhel puri), but you can also find other dishes such as skewered meats or samosas! Boba tea also exists here, because look me in the eye and tell me that Valley of Triumph wouldn’t have boba.
Many vendors get creative, so you’ll see a lot of variations in the street food. Since pottery is expensive (well, not really, a plate is like 5 candles but it’s still not something you just hand out) and usually reserved for restaurants and meals in homes, street food is often wrapped in paper.
Now I’m hungry
