A mouth, a road, and a proposal the mule could not refuse

Chalk Pit Nine Maw-Born cough
A cough gathered beggars and gave an assault its cover

Corporal H. Mace
His mother's whistle reached the wire; his answer was a shot

Father Rul
A blessing within reach of hunger

Form D-19
The question has an address

Granary Saint affair
One loaf, two fingers, and a copying error

Greek in the Codex
A tongue in the ledger proves less than the clerk would like
An A.S. 201 survey of Greek in Codex records: restricted texts, Church learning, relic labels, parish spellings and recorded pleas. Lyon contributes one disputed claim; copying it does not produce another witness.
Codex Ref. XIII.1.03-002
Psalm of Satiation
Enough to obey, enough to look away, enough not to begin
The Bureau of Rites' seven-verse field hymn delays Kargath's hunger long enough for obedience to keep its chair.
Codex Ref. XIII.1.96-194
The Blightbearers
Famine with feet, and no mercy in the pantry
Kargath's Blightbearers are famine-carriers: thin demons whose passage makes full granaries fraudulent, clear wells treacherous, and supper an accusation.

The Famine Pits
The dead are still hungry, and the Bureau prefers not to speculate why.
Fourteen confirmed burial sites in the former Hungarian plain where the dead of the Great Retreat have refused to stop dying. Their hunger radiates into the living. The Bureau classifies this as demonic. Drax does not agree.
Codex Ref. V.6.01-002
The Gorged
Still waiting for enough; which the Bureau notes, and does not discuss
Kargath's fourth taxonomic class: stationary consumption engines too vast to move, too hungry to stop. The Gorged believe the next mouthful will satisfy them. The Bureau classifies them as area denial and has noted the institutional parallel in a sealed file it declines to open.
Codex Ref. IV.1.07-004

The Enemy discovered mercy and weaponised supper
Kargath's Harvest are provision-demons: gentle tenders of impossible crops whose real food fills the body, doubles the hunger, and murders gratitude.
