In-Game Text

Whoe'er has gone thro' London street,

Has seen a butcher gazing at his meat.

And how he keeps

Gloating upon a sheep's

Or bullock's personals, as if his own;

How he admires his halves

And quarters-and his calves,

As if in truth upon his own legs grown.

-Thomas Hold, A Butcher

A Pilgrim versed in the ways of the butcher is able to extract more useful meat from animal carcasses. Butchery allows you to cut steaks.
