Unlike how the games and other media portrayed slimes, the creatures were highly sought after in Nexaria.
Their acid was a crucial ingredient in research and the production of alchemical products and was considered as valuable as gold.
But that wasn't all they were good for. The slimes' jelly-like exterior was used to craft prosthetics and other highly popular resources in the noble circle of Nexaria.
There was such a demand for these creatures that they were considered a rare commodity; their presence alone could elevate a shop's status as nobles went flocking in search of slime-related products to increase their non-existent beauty that resulted from generations of inbreeding within 'distant relatives'.
