Weyr Life Drabbles - Prompt word #33: "Too much"
Manora passed the glowbasket to the drudge, and climbed onto the stepladder. There was a very small chance that tucked away in the darkness of the top shelf she'd find something edible that wasn't salted fish. In the past month, they'd eaten fish stew, fish pie, baked fish, steamed fish, fish pate and every other fish-based recipe in the records. They'd even concocted a few new ones.
But there was no use denying it - they had too much fish, and not enough of anything else. The Weyr wouldn't stand for this much longer.
It was time to speak to Lessa.
