Fiwai'al (Foodstuff) Synopsis
Aslan luxury product. Both a (foodtuff) spice, and component used in the manufacture of fine Aslan perfumes. Often in great demand.
Fiwai'al is a much sought-after and expensive plant-based product used both for cooking and for the manufacture of perfumes.
Fiwai'al (Foodstuff) Background
Fiwai'al is a commodity derived from a plant grown only on Aslan world of Hroilr (Dark Nebula 1536 A5566K8-B), which is controlled by the Keiouwyaouryakh Clan.
The Keiouwyaouryakh Clan closely guards the secret of Fiwai'al-a-culture, the art and science of cultivating the Fiwai'al plant. They also guard the methods use to refine Fiwai'al as a spice and how to distill Fiwai'al essence for use in perfumery.
It is rarely sold outside the Hierate, since humans find its smell unattractive and it is toxic when taken internally by Humans. Some Solomani Humans have remarked that Fiwai'al perfume smells like panther piss.
