Breakfast costs 50 to 70 miles, extra water boiling adds mileage, full course lunch and dinner run around 100 miles, coffee adds 25 miles, and other items list mileage for mains salads and desserts in a playful travel-while-eating conceit. The fragment references Advoca Rune and Glenelgen, with unclear context and garbled lines.
