Fried Axolotl, known for its delicious tender flavour, has become a highly controversial subject among the South Kryskan Population.
Axolotl Rights Activists belonging to the Friends-Not-Food Movement advocate for the banning and illegalization of the selling and consumption of Axolotl meats under ethical grounds for the treatment of Axolotls which many are known to be sentient. In response, the Friends-And-Food Counter-movement, backed by Axolotl Food Chains and the Axolotl Meat Industry, supports the right of consumption and claims the banning of Axolotl meat products constitutes as discrimination against Snoran culture. In the year 11, a scandal has transpired where the First Architect allegedly purchased and consumed Fried Axolotl for Lunch.
The issue has captured the attention across the waters, sparking outcry among many Axolians. ''“On the question of eating my people I think it is absolutely horrendous. Axolians are a sentient species. We are intelligent, we have thoughts. We have feelings, motivations. Hunting us down for our meat is disgraceful. You would not eat another one of your kind under most any circumstance. You do not eat your friends.”'' states Mayor of Axolia, Casnexx Goldenfin
In response, First Architect Wolfgang Kreis ruled against the motion to legalize consumption & distribution of Axolotl meat, and vowed to crack down on illegal axolotl meat smuggling and global Axolian trafficking cartels. A firm stance on the matter that divided the Legislative Court fairly equally, and something First Architect has hitherto been reluctant to do. News of chairs and other furniture thrown across the stalls at the First Architect has dominated public discourse.
With the ruling coinciding with Blackthorn’s Special Military Operation on Birchwater Harbour as a response to the kidnapping of prominent Blackthorian officials, which the Republic of Snora has condemned in support of Birthwater Harbour, spokespersons of the Snoran government have accused the First Architect of anti-Snoran rhetoric and Snoranophobia.
Due to the meats becoming a notable and affordable delicacy among the minority indigenous South Kryskan community, and with indigenous Kryskan rights an issue on its own to contend with, approval ratings of the First Architect experienced a decline, especially among the conservative Sengarian Pathic indigenous Kryskan population, which has prompted Opposition Leader Valentine Adler to call for the impeachment of Kreis. However, Kreis has received much praise and approval from Sentient rights activists and among the Pangolite Youth Demographic.

The indigenous South Kryiskan culture carries traditional knowledge that comprises practical problem solving-based advancements in architecture and structural engineering defined through the use of practical, optimal problem-solving techniques to engineering problems. South Kryiskan culture also comprises vibrant and refined music. Attempts to institutionalize the traditional knowledge are being made in the present.
