¨¨¨¨-~:$*# viscous (but still pourable). it smells #*$:~-¨¨¨¨

¨¨¨¨-~:$*# the desert of kirugu serves this #*$:~-¨¨¨¨

¨¨-~:$*#@# pumps to empty small boxes or jars of #@#*$:~-¨¨

¨¨¨-~:$*#@ would remember drinking (which is also @#*$:~-¨¨¨
¨¨¨¨-~:$*# made harder by the attention focusing #*$:~-¨¨¨¨

¨¨¨¨-~:$*# #*$:~-¨¨¨¨
¨¨¨-~:$*#@ people are known to suffer injuries @#*$:~-¨¨¨
¨¨-~:$*#@# from being still in unfavourable #@#*$:~-¨¨
¨-~:$*#@## climates for too long, sometimes to the ##@#*$:~-¨
¨¨-~:$*#@# point of death. another danger is #@#*$:~-¨¨
¨¨¨-~:$*#@ actually locomotion of the body... @#*$:~-¨¨¨
¨¨¨¨-~:$*# walking around is still somewhat #*$:~-¨¨¨¨
¨¨¨¨¨-~:$* possible after losing sight, which have *$:~-¨¨¨¨¨
¨¨¨¨-~:$*# lead to seveal falls. additionally, #*$:~-¨¨¨¨
¨¨¨-~:$*#@ robberies of the intoxicated are common. @#*$:~-¨¨¨
¨¨-~:$*#@# #@#*$:~-¨¨
¨-~:$*#@## lastly, albeit very rare, it's possible ##@#*$:~-¨
¨¨-~:$*#@# to die of pure overdose (on the scale #@#*$:~-¨¨
¨¨¨-~:$*#@ of jars of honey) before being killed @#*$:~-¨¨¨
¨¨¨¨-~:$*# by thirst. there are rumors that this #*$:~-¨¨¨¨
