Characteristics
Overview
The fat skimmed off whole milk. Calorie dense and restorative, but it will barely quench your thirst.
You spend it on one of three things: your stomach, a creamy tea or a rich pie. All three pull on the same small stack, so it pays to pick one before the fridge has done its work.
The game text of milk says to store it in a fridge to separate it, which leaves you cream and skimmed milk. That is a real trade. Whole milk goes into the milky pure teas, which make an effect last longer. Cream goes into the creamy ones, which hit harder and end sooner.
Watch out
Do not park milk in the fridge out of habit. It separates in there, and the milky teas want it whole.
Eaten as it is, cream is calorie dense and restorative but barely touches your thirst. That makes it the thing to eat right after a beef pie has raised your food cap, with a water bottle close by.
Picture an online raid on its way and a team holding a few pure healing teas. Three cream turn one into a creamy pure healing tea, so the large heal over time comes in stronger and runs out sooner, which suits a fight that will be over in minutes. Every rich pie mentions cream in its own text too, so a group that bakes them wants a steady supply.
