It began with the forging of the Great Stocks. Three were given to the Bovril, oldest, simplest and meatiest of all pastes. Seven to the Bisto-Lords, great gravies and aahsmen of the luncheon halls. And nine, nine cubes were gifted to the race of Oxo, who above all else desire flavour. For within these stocks was bound the savoury and the salt to enrich each meal. But they were all of them deceived, for another stock was made. Deep in the land of Knorrdorr, on the Stoves of Chez Nico, the Dark Lord Marcon forged a master stock, and into this pot he poured his cruelty, his malice and his will to add olive oil to all dishes.
