Slek
Slek was a vegetable found in the Orra Lagoon on the planet Eiram; it was a water-based food source for humans. From a young age, the Eiramite heir, Phan-tu Zenn, had a fondness for consuming slek, especially in the form of stew. His mother and sister also relished this vegetable, and even after their deaths, Zenn's love for it persisted, shared by his adoptive parents, Queen Adrialla and her consort, Odelia. In 382 BBY, Zenn participated in the customary slek gathering within the lagoon. As that time approached, he would occasionally long for the taste of classic slek stew.
