I think I'll pass on drinking Caldari or Achuran evergreen leaf tea. I hear the stuff is bitter with a "killer" aftertaste. Blink

When the world is running down, you make the best of what's still around.

Achuran tea is, I believe, a lot less bitter than the Caldari brew. I also believe it is a taste that you'll actually survive the effort of trying to acquire. ;)

For the first time since I started the conversation, he looks me dead in the eye. In his gaze are steel jackhammers, quiet vengeance, a hundred thousand orbital bombs frozen in still life.

I'm at a loss how to.advise you better. Perhaps you had best take my word for it? My own reference works are very light on Minmatar tribal history, Ammarian scripture and other such subjects, but I don't feel the need to declare someone's cultural history to be a "capsuleer myth" and your doing so merely cements my opinion of you as something of a boor.

Go search harder?


If I may briefly interject in the exchange between Neophyte Farel and Mr. Tuulinen, The Society (SFRIM) of course respects the cultural traditions and knowledge of our Caldari allies. Any inference otherwise from a brief offhand comment by a member is expressly denied.

Perhaps it might be worthwhile for Ms. Farel and Mr. Tuulinen to discuss whether Mr. Tuulinen might like to make a presentation as to Caldari tea and traditions at the upcoming New Eden Faire?

I for one have always found Mr. Tuulinen to be quite... charming.

I would certainly not presume to criticise SFRIM collectively on a charge of cultural insensitivity, Luna - especially not so soon after your mourning period for the Empress ended.

Sadly the New Eden faire will be arranged such that it is impossible for those who cannot enter Gallente space to attend, if I remember the original announcement. It is possible to gain access to illegally, but doing so whilst attending an official function as an exhibitor would require a man of more cunning and sleight-of-hand than I possess.

Oh, he is definitely a charmer.
Especially when he wears ALL the clothes.

I promise I've never worn less than all the clothes when meeting with Ms Aspenstar.

As do I...

As a matter of interest, I once did a basic chemical analysis of some (very) high-strength kresh tea. I and the research team at the lab came to the conclusion it would actually be an acceptable, if far less efficient, replacement for the neurotoxin used in capsule neurotransmission systems.

Well, provided it's brewed strong enough.

Proper dressing is a part of the ceremony.
