What kind of wine goes with death?

The major preservative is really just that the meat is being dried. With moisture driven out rot has less of a chance to set in, and the smoke does two things, it creates a layer of antioxidants on the exposed surfaces, and more importantly it adds flavor. The flavor comes from the sugars that are broken down from the wood cells as they burn.  The thing of it is though at the time I did not even realize entirely that i had been ghouled. I knew that I always wanted to work in the best interest of my lord, even though I had never met him. There were the dinners every fortnight, that always came with an amazing wine, in hind-sight it is easy to see what was really going on. Still, that doesn't matter much at this point, that was the night I first met my lord and walked out of the world I had known. I had a family, I never knew what was told to them if anything was said at all. The wine cellar, was never well light in the first place, but that night the dark was impenetrable the candle I was using was barely enough to read the labels on the bottles let alone navigate my way. I never saw him, but his voice was a clear as a church bell. I remember thinking his accent was strange, but I didn't understand why till some time later when I understood how old he was. My hands followed his instructions to the bottle with out my brain even getting involved. I left the candle on the rack and moved into the darkness, I could feel his presence there filling up the shadow, but not passing even a hint into the dim candle light. The words he spoke to me I can not recall, but I remember feeling them in my bones more than hearing them, then I died.
