The three of us met, as we always did, for my birthday. As it was my day, Lothi brought the brandy as I did for Kandor’s and Kandor did fir Lothi. It had been a long day and we managed a light meal before drinking to health and success in the next year.

The apple brandy was pure and strong and instantly restored my strength and inspiration. Again, I felt read to continue our duties . . . even in the dangerous situation we found ourselves in.
Birthday Brandy
These brandies, almost always fruit brandies, are ensorcelled to protect the drinker from birthday to birthday. They are prized by noble families but are occasional bought by those of lesser means for a family member about to embark upon a major undertaking. It is usually kept in three-sided opaque glass bottles with runes of protection gast into the glass itself and the cork is sealed with wax bearing the mark of its distiller and creator.
