 ===== Towns =====
 Confirm a town visit, then choose Marketplace, Downtown, Smithy or Shipyard. Prices, stocks and available facilities are displayed. Buy and sell through quantity confirmation; Downtown offers recruitment, divination and rumours. Confirmed purchases remain in your inventory if you cancel a later transaction. Return to Lair ends the visit and its campaign order.
+===== Food prices, fur and wild beasts =====
+Food quotes change with monthly local market rates, retaining hundredth-Gold precision. At Rate 49, buy Food at 1.96 Gold per unit or sell at 0.98; at Rate 51, the quotes are 2.04 and 1.02. Whole-Gold purchase totals round up and sale totals round down for the full quantity; the preview shows the final cost/proceeds before confirmation. Quantities do not change. A sale returning zero Gold or overflowing your treasury is rejected without spending resources.
+Choose **Trade > Hunt for fur** to choose a companion and confirm a fur hunt. Food hunting has its own menu choice too. Hunting is seasonal, March through November; winter messages explain that it resumes in March. Fur goes into the province's stock, persists in saves and can be sold on a later town visit through **Marketplace > Sell fur**.
+At a default 5% chance per eligible province in March–November, a wild wolf, leopard, tiger or bear may terrorise residents. The arrival alert names the province/species and shows Food before, lost and left. The saved notice does not spend an order when acknowledged. The province warning stays visible while the beast raids Food stores by 5% each month. Choose **Develop > Beast expedition**, select a companion and inspect the success chance before confirming. Success drives it away and earns Popularity; failure wounds the expedition and leaves the threat in place. The season's end also clears the beast.
