So, some honestly kinda fucked up mythology from our actual, real world Earth is that a variety of half-jinni, half-human called a nasnas (The offspring of a human and a shiqq.) was actually hunted by human settlements, cooked, and consumed. They even described the flavor of its meat, saying it tasted like "succulant lamb."
... Sugar is not a nasnas. She's a variety of half-jinni known as a saalah, famous for luring people in to dance to exhaustion or death with them and for being the nemeses of dogs and wolves.
Hope these drow chicks enjoy their meal, anyway.
EDIT: Hadramaut! That's where they were said to hunt and eat the nasnas!

I'm sure she'll taste great regardless

One can only hope. Who knows how good a cook that drow is.

This looks really delicious! I love the expression on her face and I appreciated the context from the blurb! Thanks.

Bonus blurb about saalahs. Some people believe/believed that Bilqis (The Queen of Sheba/Saba from the stories of King Solomon.) was one. And that she had the legs of a donkey. Historians, of course, debate whether or not Bilqis ever even existed.
Nasnas weren't really important individually. Though there is something to be said about how they only had half a body, so did their shiqq parents, and there was also a soothsayer named Shiqq who supposedly foretold of Muhammad and fits that destription. One eyed, one legged, with only one hand. Anyway I remembered where nasnas were supposedly hunted and eaten by humans. Hadramaut. Old region that used to be parts of Yemen, Oman, and Saudi Arabia.

Perhaps even for the whole group. Pretty good bit of dancer's thigh there.

I don't know why, but the dance-to-exhaustion-part makes me think of what I think is called the "Dancing Mania" in english, where people just randomly started to dance and didn't stop until they died from exhaustion or injuries...

A great discussion of the Dancing Plagues I'd recommend giving a listen is this interview with Medieval historian Eleanor Janega, cultural historian Maddy Pelling, and historian Anthony Delaney, who got his PhD with a thesis on queer domesticity in the 1700's.
