Summary: 'The cottage is always filled with a myriad of scents.'
The cottage is always filled with a myriad of scents. There's the deep and rich smell of roast rath being cooked for a fine dinner, as well as the sweet and sharp smell of sweet tubers that will serve as a counter to the spicy taste of the rath. Ilosovic can also smell the tangy-fruity scent of Vicki's greenbriar redhip cordial and the slightly nutty scent of her rambling green leaf wine.
He walks into the kitchen, eye bright with anticipation, and now he can smell the rich, tart and spicy scent of the ginger roots Alannah uses to make the rath more tender. That, combined with the sweet smell of the roasting tubers, makes his mouth water with hunger.
There's also the ever lingering scent of some of his wife's potions, salves, and tonics, but fortunately the foul smelling Hardelberry Tonic had vanished, much to the relief of everyone.
Ilosovic sidles up to Alannah, slipping his arms around her and placing a soft kiss on her throat. "Dinner smells wonderful, love. And…so do you."
Of all the lovely and different scents, his absolute favorite will forever be the lovely apple and spice scent of his wife.
