...^«^^@ the honey is a reddish amber, very #&@^^«^...
....^«^^@& viscous (but still pourable). it smells &@^^«^....
...^«^^@ slightly of eucalyptus, and has a #&@^^«^...
..^«^^@# mostly bitter taste. ##&@^^«^..
.^«^^@## ###&@^^«^.
..^«^^@# it's highly addictive, and possess ##&@^^«^..
...^«^^@ strong psychotropic effects. #&@^^«^...

...^«^^@ #&@^^«^...
....^«^^@& the honey materializes in vaccuums &@^^«^....
...^«^^@ within any labyrinthine space. the more #&@^^«^...
..^«^^@# folded and ambiguous, the faster it ##&@^^«^..
.^«^^@## emerges. the cavernous systems under ###&@^^«^.
..^«^^@# the desert of kirugu serves this ##&@^^«^..
...^«^^@ purpose very well - the lizards use #&@^^«^...
....^«^^@& pumps to empty small boxes or jars of &@^^«^....
...^«^^@ air, which then are left overnight and #&@^^«^...
..^«^^@# harvested the next day. ##&@^^«^..
.^«^^@## ###&@^^«^.
..^«^^@# most spaces are somewhat mazelike, and ##&@^^«^..
...^«^^@ it's not uncommon for lizards in kirugu #&@^^«^...
....^«^^@& veszelle city to keep a few jars (often &@^^«^....
...^«^^@ hanged from the ceiling in metal crowns #&@^^«^...
..^«^^@# made for this purpose). however, these ##&@^^«^..
.^«^^@## may take weeks to fill. ###&@^^«^.

....^«^^@& the drug is used by the lizards in &@^^«^....
...^«^^@ these small (but often continuous) #&@^^«^...
..^«^^@# doses. this heightens the senses ##&@^^«^..
.^«^^@## somewhat but at the cost of a lessened ###&@^^«^.
..^«^^@# ability to multi-task - context ##&@^^«^..
...^«^^@ switching might take longer and be more #&@^^«^...
....^«^^@& confusing. &@^^«^....

..^«^^@# ##&@^^«^..
.^«^^@## . four spoons . ###&@^^«^.
..^«^^@# ..... ##&@^^«^..
...^«^^@ multitasking becomes very hard (the #&@^^«^...
....^«^^@& thought does not occur). senses more &@^^«^....
...^«^^@ acute but "unimportant" (ignored). #&@^^«^...
..^«^^@# inner perceptions take the upper hand, ##&@^^«^..
.^«^^@## abstraction and memory faculties are ###&@^^«^.
..^«^^@# sharpened severely. slight telepathy ##&@^^«^..
...^«^^@ (mostly moods) with other honey eaters. #&@^^«^...
....^«^^@& sense of thirst dissappears. still easy &@^^«^....
...^«^^@ to move around the body (if so #&@^^«^...
..^«^^@# inclined). ##&@^^«^..

..^«^^@# ##&@^^«^..
...^«^^@ . seven spoons . #&@^^«^...
....^«^^@& ..... &@^^«^....
...^«^^@ the honey eater becomes unresponsive to #&@^^«^...
..^«^^@# normal stimuli, but able to override ##&@^^«^..
.^«^^@## their own senses with dreamlike ###&@^^«^.
..^«^^@# imagery. sharing of thoughts with other ##&@^^«^..
...^«^^@ eaters, mood reading of those who stay #&@^^«^...
....^«^^@& sober (worth noting that the thoughts &@^^«^....
...^«^^@ are very fragmented and hard to #&@^^«^...
..^«^^@# decipher, unless you are at a similar ##&@^^«^..
.^«^^@## level of spoons). at this point the ###&@^^«^.
..^«^^@# body is hard to move, and starts losing ##&@^^«^..
...^«^^@ water. #&@^^«^...

..^«^^@# most deaths are due to loss of water - ##&@^^«^..
...^«^^@ thirst is one of the last senses to #&@^^«^...
....^«^^@& restable after coming down, often gone &@^^«^....
...^«^^@ for up to twenty four hours. at higher #&@^^«^...
..^«^^@# doses it's hard to move, even if you ##&@^^«^..
.^«^^@## would remember drinking (which is also ###&@^^«^.
..^«^^@# made harder by the attention focusing ##&@^^«^..
...^«^^@ properties of the honey). #&@^^«^...
....^«^^@& &@^^«^....
...^«^^@ 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 ##&@^^«^..
.^«^^@## leaves "ghosts", who will still share ###&@^^«^.
..^«^^@# their thoughts long after their bodies ##&@^^«^..
