Honor of the Hunted
The deminor love to live one with nature and find that you must honor the thing you eat. They always pray and thank the beast for dying so they may live. It's also very common to give offerings before the hunting season. They also like to spend lots of time preparing their food with proper seasoning. Now just like any other race, they can cook up something quick when necessary, but outside of those times, they spend a lot of time preparing their meals with proper seasoning. -Ace Cardia
History
This ritual is common among most deminor especially the Gau-ra. They started this tradition sometime after the first pact with the primal spirits. From then on they honored those they hunted and gave prayers to the spirits who allowed them to succeed at hunting. This tradition continued on till today even though civilization is causing a shift in this belief as people feel they have more things to do in the day.
Execution
From the very moment, they kill an animal they must give praise to the sacrifice of the creature. They then make sure to bring the beast back to the village or to camp where they will do what necessary to take all the meat and hide that can be useful. When preparing the meat they always tend to put strong spices and may alter what they put to give it a different taste.
