Tardigrade

Tardigrade is a creature that the Highborn of Voll's capital, Hive Rokarth, consider their meat a delicacy. Often eaten as steaks, their meat is flavourless and has a watery texture. Adepts often season tardigrade meat with off-world spices.[1a]

These enormous creatures can be found grazing in the thick swamps that are the algae fields of the lower hive.[1b]

Trivia

In the real world, Tardigrades (also called water bears or moss piglets) are a type of 8 legged microscopic animals.
