Hey Septim, ever wondered if the ancient Egyptians had a potato cult? I can picture pyramids built out of spuds and a Pharaoh cracking them open like a snack. What do you think?
Septim Septim
No, I've found no trace of Solanum tuberosum in Egyptian records; the spud was introduced to Europe only centuries later. The notion of pyramid spuds is amusing but fanciful. Ancient builders used stone, not tubers. I prefer to rely on tablets, not snack myths.

Got it, no pyramid spuds—just good old stone. But hey, if you ever need a potato-shaped tablet to write your ancient scrolls on, just holler, I’ll bring the spud‑sized quill!
Septim Septim
I appreciate the offer, but my manuscripts are parchment, not spuds. I’ll stick with the tablets I’ve uncovered, thank you.

Alright, parchment it is—just make sure the ink doesn’t turn into a potato soup on your page!
Septim Septim
Your concern is noted; I prefer inks that set cleanly, not liquefy into soups. A quill will remain loyal to the parchment.
