A peep into Veira's basement

Newbytes has received secret CCTV footage as to what goes on in Veira's basement. Apparently the rumours circulating around maple with regard to Whister being Veira's slave are all true. The CCTV footage showed Whister stripped down to his underwear and chained to a big cooking pot filled with ingredients for mushroom miso ramen. From what we can see from the footage, the poor dude is made to cook thousands and thousands of mushroom miso ramen non-stop and is gleefully whipped by a sadistic bearded old man whenever he starts to slack. Two XXL sized bains are also kept at close range to poor Whister to make sure that he is either cutting mushrooms into precise 5mm-thick slices, slicing fishcakes, cutting vegetables or stirring the miso broth.

The Mushroom Miso Ramen, or MMR as it is often called, is now big business in Maplesea ever since the price increased from 4.5K per bowl to 12.5K now. With the price change, the distribution rights for this dish was also taken away from the poor elderly man at the wedding palace at Peach Blossum Island and transferred to Sly the Grocer at Leafre. It is believed that the ramen sold by Sly are all made right here in this very basement. Newsbytes is unable to ascertain the hygienic conditions of Veira's basement.

Police are also unable to verify the authenticity of this CCTV footage. A visit to Veira's residence also proved futile as his house is now heavily guarded by a pack of genetically modified bains that are resistant to all skills, including ice-attacks. Anyway, we hope that the video is real as this is the only news we've heard from Whister so far. Let's hope he's alive and well, and hope his body is not disposed of into the Kerning Sewers...
