Animals

Type of goat from which milk and other dairy products can be made, but meat is only eaten by the poorest.

Game birds, similar to peacock, Cornish game hens, and pheasant.  Most of these kind of game birds are wild, and only the Ji'Ken have been able to raise a few.  They go wild easily and are difficult to tame.

Lizard mounts, the Jillhani have almost no horses except what they import, and most ride a form of lizard creature.

The Jillhani keep elegant fish and snakes as pets in elaborate tanks.

Eki Lizard

Eki are a large lizard looking wild beast who is quite popular amongst Jillhani warriors due to its speed, strength and ferocious protectiveness of its master/mistresses. They vary in colors but are most commonly seen in dark greens around the ji'ken areas, and dark brown to blood red the higher up you go into the mountains. Their hides are covered in hard scales which look like armor. They seem to be the ancestors of similar creatures spotted in the other realms namely Zuben. It is thought that in the old days one of the Joushu's gave two to the Priest King of Zuben as a gift, and the desert offspring were born.

Legend of their appearance on the lands is that Ji'Kalna while gazing down on her children noticed some in trouble and in danger of being trampled by some angered torlek. the closest thing next to them was a small lizard perched on a stone watching. rather than letting her children die she breathed into the lizards small nostrils giving it courage and will to protect her children. With the blown breath the little lizard grew about 100 times its size. Heeding to Ji'Kalnas will and call to it the Eki fought with all it's might. It did not succeed in killing the torlek but it managed to dive it away. Impressed by the little lizards actions  she let it remain as its present form and healed it to health with a tear shed on it. Seeing it might get lonely and die of sorrow she breathed into a female lizards nostrils and created a mate for the male. That is the Myth behind the appearance of Eki

Eki are about 1-2 feet taller than a horse. The higher up in the mountain the taller they are but sizes only vary by a foot max.

Male Eki are larger than the females, but slower and more thickly scaled. Most male Eki seen are used as war beasts. They have a distinctive difference in size and the sound they make. Male Eki tend to roar when angered and make a sort of trilling sound when relaxed. They are also rarer. Female Eki are smaller than Male Eki.

Eki milk is also known to heal certain ailments as well as being nutritious and is a prized beverage. Female Eki trill in high to mid tones and are less temperamental than males, but still equally protective of their mistress/masters. Eki only breed once every 50 years so they are very hard to find, and much more harder to mate. Owning an Eki that has accepted you as a Master/Mistress is seen as a blessing of Ji'Kalna as its was her who chose them to protect her children
