- J’aidais justement Ghezumi et Kassergh à bâter l’hypocras : du vin au miel avec de la cannelle et du gingembre mélangé à du musc, de l’ambre gris, de la cardamome, du poivre long, de la graine de paradis et de la fleur de muscade. On ne trouve cette variété qu’à Chaz. - J’ignorais que les sujets de Sahr’Lim consommaient l’hypocras, avoua le hérisson géant. - Ha ! Certes non, nous n’en buvons pas ! le détrompa Dazhirk d’un ton affable. Mais cela se vend bien dans l’empire de Tawag, demandez donc à votre compagne. - Effectivement les gens de notre empire en sont friands, affirma Selamawit, et il arrive aussi que les sujets du royaume de Kambu l’achètent quand ils s’approchent de nos frontières. - C’est pourquoi j’en transporte souvent, cela assure déjà les frais de caravane. Mais c’est très délicat au départ, confia Dazhirk avec un regard soucieux vers les lézards géants qui acceptaient docilement leur chargement. - Comment cela ? questionna Nyssa. - Il faut soigneusement sangler les lézards, jeune damoiselle, répondit-il après un silence pendant lequel il scruta attentivement la jeune fille. Ni trop lâche, ni trop serré avec ces reptiles dont le corps se gonfle une fois chargé. Puis, il faut équilibrer très exactement les charges, les envelopper dans une toile épaisse qui les protège de la lumière et de la chaleur, enfin ficeler correctement le tout. Cela fait, on peut alors accomplir des journées entières de voyage sans crainte de semer tout le chargement au long du parcours ou de le renverser, ce qui casserait les récipients et nous ferait perdre notre investissement.
