Of Dereth’s accumulated menagerie of creatures, few have proven to be of any use as livestock to human settlers. Attempts to put captured drudges and banderlings to labor have met with almost no success. The prisoners proved unable to comprehend any instructions. Most experiments with reedshark watchdogs resulted in total disaster. The Lugian people seem to have mastered the taming of these beasts, but it remains beyond our ken. (I have heard rumors that a powerful Aluvian life mage has achieved the same success as the Lugians, but I cannot personally confirm this). While some Holtsburgian farmers have yoked auroch bulls, they admit the beasts are of far better value when slaughtered and ground into mince. <br />
<br><br>There appears to be precious little use for Derethian fauna except in death; expert craftsmen can rework bits of their corpses into useable items. Consider the armoredillo’s useful plates, or the furry hide of the mattekar. And while drudges and their kin have proven of no use for labor, their heads, at least, have recently made fine harvest festival masks.
