The World of Nero

A Guide to "A Caravan Through Nero"

Only on some islands in the Mediterranean Ocean can you find these amazing creatures: Common Anomaloparachudozavrs. These three-meter-tall bipedal reptiles are like a message from a long-gone era, when similar animals lived throughout Nero.
Common Anomaloparachudozavrs are named as such for several reasons. First, they are indeed monstrous in the sense that they are predatory, hunt in packs, so an encounter with them usually doesn't bode well. Second, they are completely unusual, anomalous, and wonderful, and this is expressed in almost everything: in their sensitive sense of smell, especially for reptiles, in their amazing flexible scales, which allow them to move particularly quickly, in their ridiculous appearance (would you want to have such a disproportionate belly, a long neck, and short little arms? Probably not), and, finally, in their surprisingly delicious, tender, and delicate meat. And they are called "common" because there are also crested Anomaloparachudozavrs and some other related species, but they all live on the islands of the Wild Sea, as well as on Eastern Petalode.


Ingredients:
-One Common Anomaloparachudozavr *
-Tomatoes
-Basil
-Olives
-Feta cheese
-Flour
-Eggs **
-Yeast
-Salt and pepper to taste

Recipe:
-Knead the dough and let it rise. While the dough is rising, it's best not to breathe. If the Common Anomaloparachudozavr isn't already dead, you should also ask it not to breathe.
-Kill the Common Anomaloparachudozavr. Do this carefully so that it doesn't kill you.
-Gut the Common Anomaloparachudozavr. Cut off a leg from the carcass: the most tender part of the animal.
-The animal's leg must be cleaned of bones and tendons, then chopped with a butcher's knife. If you don't have a butcher's knife on hand, you can try using the Common Anomaloparachudozavr's jaws: they are sharp enough for this.
-You can breathe now.
-Knead the dough, roll it out into a flat shape.
-Place the chopped Common Anomaloparachudozavr leg, one egg, tomatoes, basil, salt, and pepper into the dough, and top with cheese. Close the pie.
-Place the pie in the oven or, if you have one, on hot sand.
-The dish is ready; before serving, it is best to garnish it with a basil leaf.

* In some articles in this book, such ingredients were placed last, which caused negative feedback from readers. In one article, "Papont Roast," the text was as follows: potatoes, olives, tomatoes, sweet peppers, hot peppers, salt, and spices to taste, one papont. Readers would start preparing the dish and only realize at the end that they were missing the papont, and the cooking process would come to a standstill. Therefore, this article placed the main ingredient of the dish, the Common Anomaloparachudozavr, first in the list to avoid misunderstandings.
** It is best to use Anomaloparachudozavr eggs.
