 Meekleaf potions are a widely-known phenomenon throughout the Tangle. The less powerful ones have legitimate uses, especially as a mild [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sedative|sedative]] or as a means for bringing relief from trauma, but the potions' notoriety comes from those made from extract that has been distilled to increase its effect.

-It is partly for this reason than a long-standing cultural tradition in the [[geography:sekhaa:region:Heartlands]] dictates that a host, when serving drinks, must pour all the drinks from the same vessel and drink first. Also for this reason, the overwhelming majority of governments in this region and beyond forbid the distillation of meekleaf extract on pain of death, and many of them attempt to strictly control the cultivation and harvesting of the plant. There are occasionally exceptions, if thought necessary, for use on [[chosen:|witches]], as strong meekleaf potions - if they can be successfully and regularly applied - are one of the more reliable ways of keeping them under control and discouraging them from using their [[chosen:magic:]] freely.
