Brought to Seven Corners centuries ago from nearby Quarzite by the Belugan diaspora, gluk is enjoyed by people of low to middling socioeconomic circumstances, from beggars to uptier corpo wagemen. Authentic gluk is essentially native to the Volgho Hollows and Lum Rouge regions of Seven Corners, but gluk stalls can be found more broadly. For millions, gluk is a beloved staple.
