T/W: Drug addiction, sibling violence, toxic masculinity, acid reflux (to be safe), era appropriate sexism

Primum Peccatum Ch. 8: Nausea, Oh Nausea

The day after she received her engagement ring, Pomni faced yet another bugbear. Perhaps it was stress, or perhaps it was her eating habits, but a dreadful case of pyrosis had festered in her abdomen. She woke up early that morning, gasping and swallowing from a noxious, brutally hot bubble of stomach acid that had frothed its way into her throat. She managed to swallow it back down, but it merely rejoined the larger mass of bile that sat burning and unmoving in her chest. She coughed, her throat now feeling red and inflamed, and she stumbled from her bedroom into the washroom in search of alkalizers.

She opened the medicine cabinet just above the sink, rifling through the glass bottles of pills and brown tonics. Meadowsweet tablets, camphor oil, senna purgatives… no alkalizers. There were 100-tablet bottles of the confounded things sitting around any drugstore for a measly one crown, why had she or her parents never bothered to purchase one?!

No matter. The first ferry left at seven in the morning, she could return her library book and purchase a bottle in no time. Then she’d have the rest of the day to read with no distraction.

She pressed a hand to her chest and groaned. Pyrosis always seemed to emerge from nowhere, yet remained stalwart for days without proper treatment. She felt as though someone could have driven a spile into her chest and a torrent of acid would erupt from the tube, scorching and marring anything it touched.

Pomni clothed herself, a white dress today, grabbed her book from her nightstand and a pair of stockings from her wardrobe, and hurried downstairs into the foyer. Zooble had the front door open, sweeping detritus from the previous day’s rain off of the front stoop. Pomni had begun tugging on her stockings when Zooble finally broke the silence.

“Up early, are we, Ms. Shutnyk?” they said without looking up.

“Good morning, Zooble. I say, you wouldn’t happen to have any papaya tablets, would you? My chest burns quite a lot…”

Zooble finished sweeping the left side of the stoop, then glanced up, leaning on the shaft of their broomstick.

“I do not. If you like, I can fetch some for you on my afternoon grocery run. I hate to admonish you, but I did warn you not to neglect meals. You’re skipping lunch to avoid your parents, aren’t you?”

Pomni opened her mouth to respond, then closed it. As usual, Zooble had the most common sense in the entire estate. She had indeed been skipping lunch most days… all the excess bile in her stomach had to go somewhere. …She wasn’t sure if that answer was scientific, but it was a reasonable hypothesis.

“Very well then. I’ll purchase a bottle on the mainland. I’ve finished Humidity and I’d like to exchange it for something… heavier.” Pomni put a closed fist to her lips, fighting off a sour belch climbing up her throat. She pulled on her white pumps.

“Perhaps a dictionary?” Zooble replied, resting their chin on the head of their broomstick.

Pomni rolled her eyes, smirking. “I’ll take the suggestion to heart. Have a pleasant morning, Zooble.”

Pomni climbed to her feet, picked up her hat and handbag and hurried out the door towards the road. Once she was out of earshot of anyone, she allowed herself to belch. It provided a few moments of relief before the burning in her chest rekindled. She sighed and slid her novel into her handbag. The early sun cast a beautiful red and orange cone of light across the reach, birds twittered back and forth to one another, it was a tranquil scene. Pomni wished she could enjoy it more, but it was difficult to savor the splendor of nature when her chest burned so much.

She reached the pier and sat upon one of the benches. She had no pocketwatch, but the sun fully rose around 7:27 in the morning, so she would only have a quarter of an hour or so before the ferry arrived. She sat, drumming her fingers on the strap of her handbag impatiently. She dug into the leather slightly with her fingernails at a particularly bad sear of pain in her chest. A distraction would be much appreciated right about now…

She removed Humidity from her handbag. She had the book read twice, but rereading her favorite bits might pass the time somewhat-

“GOOD MORNING MISS SHUT-NECK!”

Pomni leapt almost a foot off of her bench at the sudden exclamation from behind her. She whirled about and glowered at the perpetrator.

“Bubble! For the love of the Allfather, must you shout like that?!”

The perfectly spherical shapeman grinned, showing off dagger-sharp teeth, and his beady little eyes gleamed with unintelligent enthusiasm. A leather satchel was wrapped across his entire, transparent body like a belt, the Postal Service crest embossed onto it.

“A thousand pardons, Miss Nut-Shack! But you’ve received a letter!” he squealed.

Bubble was the postman of Primum Peccatum. And although he was… abrasive, to put it delicately, he was impeccably punctual, largely due to the fact that he could fly. There were rumors that he came from a hidden oasis somewhere in Dovicia, but there were no anthropological reports detailing such a place. It was also unknown exactly how Bubble earned his occupation, as the HOA members either were unaware of ever discussing the matter or recalled that someone else in the Association approved his application. He probably had friends in high places…

“A letter? If it’s from the Telychian Heritage Institute again, please be rid of it.”

“Not this tiii~iiime!” Bubble sang, spinning in a full circle. “It’s from Blackshell Bay!”

Bubble flicked open his satchel and held out a letter, despite his lack of any sort of appendage to do so. Pomni accepted it delicately, worried she might be bitten. Bubble immediately snapped his bag closed and hovered a bit higher.

“Now then! Off to serve the rest of the happy folks on this miserable island! Godbwye, Miss Shed-Trick!”

With that, Bubble drifted off, tumbling away into the treeline like a marble dropped into a tank of water.

Pomni sniffed. She looked down at the envelope. It had been sealed and stamped with red wax, the stamp an ornate letter “K.” She read the return address.

Drexl Krolik

The Krolik Estate

2800 Kovach Ln.

Blackshell Bay, New Hirnantia

6YL B8H

A letter from Jax’s father. Had she not already been extremely uncomfortable due to her reflux, her chest would have tightened even more. She swallowed, breaking open the seal and removing the letter from its envelope. Her hands trembled a bit.

“To My Daughter-In-Law,

I was pleased to hear that my son has earned your trust during our visit. From what your father tells me, you are an intelligent and trustworthy girl, and I thus have faith in your ability to look after Jax. However, I was dissatisfied by the length of our conversation.

I still know little about you as an individual, and would like to remedy this. Therefore, you and Jax are cordially invited to my estate tomorrow evening at seven o’ clock. My other sons are quite eager to make your acquaintance as well. Dinner will be provided.

I look forward to your company. Please reply to this letter at your earliest convenience.

Fondly,

Drexl Krolik”

Pomni felt her already inundated stomach lurch. What manner of foolishness..? Tomorrow evening? And dropped on her so suddenly-! She was hardly used to Jax, now she had to contend with the entire family?!

“Suspicion is the proper response to some members of my family,” she remembered Jax saying. She felt like vomiting even more.

She hurriedly crammed the letter into her handbag before jumping to her feet and racing off towards The Rooker Estate.

—

Pomni arrived at Mr. Kinger’s front door, out of breath and perspiring. Her lungs now burned in addition to the rest of her chest. She grasped for her ring of keys, unlocking the door and sliding inside.

“Mr. Kinger?!” she called out, shutting the door behind her. “I apologize for arriving unannounced, but I must speak to my fiancé urgently!”

She received no reply, either she hadn’t succeeded in rousing anyone or Kinger had ventured into the woods early to collect insects. She crept up the foyer stairs onto the second floor landing, gazing hesitantly into the East wing. She chewed on her fingertips.

“Mr. Krolik?” she whispered harshly. “Mr.- Jax, it’s me! It’s Pomni, are you there? I have a matter of the utmost importance to-”

She let out a pained gasp and clutched at her chest. Acidic pain churned within like a smelting pool. All that running had only aggravated her condition. She needed relief.

“Oh, damn it all to The Void…”

She hurried to the guest WC. She had stayed the night at Kinger’s house enough times to know exactly how the guest wing was arranged, the furthest door on the right led to this bathroom. The door was left open a small bit, which spared her the embarrassment of having to knock and ask if it was occupied. She nudged the door open.

The guest bath was surprisingly tidy compared to the rest of the house. Kinger probably had no use using such a damp and private area as storage space. The privy sat on the far end of the room, the faucet on the left wall and the washtub on the right. How anyone was supposed to warm the bathwater was unclear, perhaps it was just a cold tap… Pomni shuddered a bit at the idea of bathing in cold water.

Sitting at the faucet were a few toiletries, no doubt belonging to her fiancé. A wide bristled toothbrush and a fairly new tube of Crowley’s spearmint dental cream, a silver comb and brush set, and a bottle of eau de toilette, lavender scented. Pomni opened the mirror cabinet above the sink, praying to the Allfather or any deity that happened to be listening that there were some…

“Alkalizers! Oh, Allfather be blessed…”

A half-full glass bottle of Dr. Tatasciore’s papaya tablets sat among the myriad of other medicines. Pomnu seized the bottle, which clinked against its glass neighbors, and untwisted the metal cap. She shook two of the dull pink tablets into her palm and clapped her hand to her open mouth. She ran the tap and drank from it greedily, the tablets swept into her belly along with the cold water. She let out a long sigh, twisting the faucet off and replacing the cap on the bottle. Her chest still burned, but now relief would arrive in a half-hour to an hour, “guaranteed or your crowns back!”

She let out another rather weighty, uncouth belch, thankfully stifled by her hand, and replaced the bottle of alkalizers. As she did so, her eyes fell upon a familiar tincture bottle. The holistic Jax had taken yesterday, supposedly some sort of cure-all from his native land. Pomni smirked to herself and picked it up, curious as to what sort of ingredients went into this miraculous bottle of panacea.

The label on the bottle had been partly removed, but some of the text remained legible.

“-NCTURE CAMPHORATED

1.83 gm opium per fl. oz

Warning: May be habit forming

Alcohol 45%.”

Pomni reread the label several times. It wasn't holistic. This was… laudanum. A tincture of opium. She read about it in secondary school in her health science lessons. Opium was a narcotic that came from the poppy flower. It was known for its soothing effect on both severe pain and on the brain, but it was extremely addictive. In fact, the New Hirnantian Ministry outlawed the purchase and use of laudanum for anyone under the age of 18 precisely because it was so addictive. Children used to be given the horrid draught to “calm them down,” before, nearly a half-century ago, the Prime Minister published a statement.

“Our children should be focused on learning and socializing, and spoon feeding them this brain-softening poison is setting our next generation up for catastrophe.”

Pomni put a hand to her mouth. The strange glassy sound she had heard, and the object he was toying with in his pocket the day they first met in her father’s library. It must have been a bottle just like this one. And opium had adverse side effects such as profuse sweating and digestive issues. It explained everything.

He lied about having dyspepsia.

He took some laudanum right in front of her and lied to her face about it.

He was…

He…

…How many lies had he told already?

Was… everything he said…?

Pomni set the bottle onto the faucet with a now trembling hand. Her chest burned with new pain. But, instead of fleeing the house, she marched across the hall to the guest bedroom and rapped sharply on the door with a closed fist.

“Mr. Krolik! Open the door this instant!” she ordered.

There were a few moments of silence before Pomni beat on the door once again. Her second rapport earned her a reply from behind the door.

“Pomni…? Goodness, what time is it..?” came Jax’s sleep-addled voice.

“Either you come to the door by the time I count three, or I’m entering myself!” Pomni declared. “One! Two! Th-”

The door opened, revealing Jax in a long, black nightshirt and white underclothes, hurriedly and begrudgingly rubbing sleep from his eyes.

“By the Allfather, what is the matter? Is there an emergency..?” he asked, his yellow eyes flecked with the red of unconsciousness, his fur mussed and sticking up in some places, and his usual smile absent.

Pomni removed the letter from her handbag and thrust it into Jax’s hand, the rabbit looking at it with bleary concern.

“You are a liar, Mr. Krolik,” Pomni seethed. “You have the gall to lie to me and then put this… this wretched stone on my finger?!”

Pomni twisted the engagement ring off of her finger and tossed it onto the floor. It bounced a few times on a dusty red throw rug before clattering to a stop on the hardwood floor.

“Pomni, I-” Jax began.

“Hold your tongue! You needn’t say anything else, you cad! I found your bottle of ‘holistic medicine,’ I had no idea opium was such a popular form of alternative therapy!”

Jax’s yellow eyes grew wide. “You-”

“I cannot believe I was beginning to grow comfortable around you! Hiding inebriety from me? When were you planning on divulging THAT little factoid, hm? During our vows?! What else have you lied about?!”

Jax looked down at the washroom then back to Pomni. “N-No, dear, there must be a mistake, I-I-I never-”

Pomni stomped a foot, a ream of nearby papers sliding over into an accordion-like line.

“Oh, please, lie to me again! That will certainly redeem your character! Near-eidetic memory, have you forgotten?!” Pomni tapped on her skull with a finger. “I recognize the bottle from yesterday, so don’t you dare insult my intelligence by trying to tell me you’ve never seen it before!”

Pomni pressed a finger onto the letter in Jax’s hand. “Well, I can promise you one thing, Mr. Krolik! I certainly am not going to lie to your father! I’ll tell him exactly what a dazed, two-faced opiomaniac you are! Oh, oh, and while we’re on the subject, I should tell my father about your little infatuation with poppy! Yes, I’m sure he’ll be positively DELIGHTED to know that the man he so GENEROUSLY hand-picked for me has been hiding this! Maybe fate will finally show me an iota of mercy and my father will call this ENTIRE GODDAMN WEDDING OFF!”

PomnI panted rapidly. All of the anger and vitriol about her situation that she had bottled up erupted out of her at once. Her heartburn flared with pain, but she hardly took notice.

“Please don’t tell your father…” Jax said.

“I’m afraid I shall, Mr. Krolik. After all, if it means being rid of you, I-”

“Please…”

Pomni jolted at the sound of Jax’s voice cracking. She looked up at his face for the first time since he opened the door and gasped softly.

His brow had crumpled and the edges of his mouth trembled like dead leaves on a tree branch. His ears were pinned back against his skull, and he had crushed the note from his father into a wad. Fat tears ran in rivulets down his face.

He fell onto his knees, prostrating himself in front of Pomni and clasping his paws together, note still wadded up in his left. Tears dripped onto the dusty throw rug and soaked into it.

“I’m sorry… I’m sorry, I’m so sorry… Please don’t make me go back… I’m sorry I didn’t tell you, I’m sorry… Please forgive me…” he wept.

Pomni was rooted to the spot. She had never seen a man cry in person.

As a child, she earnestly believed only women could cry. It wasn’t until her teacher told her otherwise and read her a few of The 13 Steps, the thirteen tears the Allfather shed for humanity, that she learned such a thing was even possible. Even as a grown woman, she read about men weeping many times, but thought it so uncommon it could only happen in dramas. At her grandmother Clara’s funeral, while her mother sobbed hysterically, her father remained stalwart, pain visible on his face but not shedding a single tear. But here was Jax Krolik, crying and pleading like a peasant in front of his priestess.

“I’m so sorry, Miss Shutnyk, I’m so sorry…” he continued between hitching breaths and sobs.

Pomni held her hands out only to retract them back to her breast. She hadn’t the faintest inkling of how to help…

“M…” she swallowed at the bile in her throat, trying again. “Mr. Krolik, I… what brought this on? Please, th-there isn’t any need to grovel…”

Jax rose to his knees, wiping his tears on the back of his paws.

“I… truly apologize, Ms. Shutnyk. That was… decidedly improper of me. I… I should behave like a man… I know you think little of me already, but the least I can-”

“Please. Don’t speak. Dress yourself and meet me downstairs,” Pomni said. “We will discuss the matter in the reading room. Will Kinger be back?”

“He told me that he would be insect hunting this morning…” Jax said, sniffling.

“That gives us several hours… Very well. I’ll await you downstairs.” Pomni said, beginning her descent down the foyer stairs.

“Miss Shutnyk, I…”

“Please desist,” Pomni pleaded, turning around on the middlemost step. “This entire affair has me dreadfully confused, and it is affecting my pyrosis. I understand that you are sorry, and clearly this matter is of great concern to you… but we should discuss it first…”

Pomni turned and began to walk down the staircase, but quickly turned and walked back up to the second floor going past Jax into the restroom. She needed another alkalizer.

—

“Explain yourself.”

This was the first thing out of Pomni’s mouth the moment Jax, now dressed in a ruffled white shirt, a blue waistcoat and gray dress pants, sat opposite her in the reading room. He hadn’t bothered with shoes, but he was indoors and a beastman, so that hardly mattered. Pomni had waited for about a quarter of an hour downstairs, after picking up the ring she threw on the ground and putting it into her purse.

“Where would you like me to start..?” Jax asked, looking off into the empty fireplace.

“…Truthfully, it’s difficult to decide where to begin.” Pomni admitted. “…Right. I suppose we should begin with the most pressing issue. Why did you lie to me? About the laudanum.”

“Because I am ashamed.” Jax replied. “A 22 year-old-man, taking opium like a gibbering lunatic…”

“How often do you… indulge?” Pomni asked,

“Three to four times a day… occasionally five if I’m particularly unhappy.”

“Mr. Krolik, for goodness’ sake! How did this happen? What persuaded you to even… why?” Pomni found herself starting questions, only for them to die, incomplete, halfway from her lips.

“It began because I was in genuine pain. I told you about my brother Boone? For quite a while, I could do nothing but obey him. If he wanted my sweets, he had them, or else I earned a box to the eye. If he wanted a toy I had, either I gave it to him or he broke it in two. And he was clever about hiding it. He made sure the bruises looked accidental, or waited until my father and older brothers were well out of sight before he pounced. But, as I got older, it grew more difficult for him to bully me. I actually grew to be taller in stature than him, and he thus had a harder time using force when I could fight back just as hard.

“Oh, he tried to make it look like I was the instigator. ‘I haven’t done anything, father! He simply attacked me!’ It rarely worked. But, as I said, Boone is intelligent. When threats and blows stopped working, he changed tactics. He threatened to tell father about various things I had done behind his back, even things he had seen my brothers do. It wasn’t as effective most of the time. But there was one incident… Before we moved to Blackshell Bay, when I was 17 and he was 19. We were out running some errands, and on the way home, we were crossing a bridge, and he said something that incensed me.”

“What did he say?” Pomni asked.

“I shan’t repeat it. Apologies, but I feel ill even discussing it. Regardless, we came to blows. He shoved me, smartly, and I fell from the bridge. I broke my arm and three ribs. Even Boone felt terrible for what he had done, and he rarely felt much remorse for his actions.”

“…And that’s how the addiction began? To numb the pain of your wounds.” Pomni surmised.

“Correct. I can’t remember who suggested it, but it did the trick. …But then they took my arm out of the sling, and I found myself still wanting it. Just to help me feel better after an unhappy day, or just to help me relax before bed, or… just because I wanted it. And here we are.”

“And… I assume you don’t wish to return home because… Boone is there.” Pomni concluded.

“That is certainly part of it. Boone has apologized for his behavior, especially since my father had him flogged so thoroughly he had to eat his meals standing up… but I have my doubts. Besides, everyone there is so unhappy. Osvaldo has no support for his dream, my father is alone and low in funds, even Boone is probably desperately bored by now… I cannot go back. I’m… truly sorry I lied to you. I suppose I’ve done exactly what I accused humans of when we first met.”

Pomni swallowed. Her pyrosis had finally been quelled, but she felt ill regardless.

“I apologize as well. For saying all of that horrid nonsense. I… I still wish I wasn’t being forced to marry you, but I… I had no idea your situation was so dire. But I do think it was foolish of you to not tell me about your habit. When I saw that laudanum label, I… I thought everything you told me was a lie…”

“…I apologize. Whole-heartedly. I only lied about the opium… And, well…”

Pomni looked up. Oh blast it, what else had he kept hidden from her..?

“…I never finished Margaret’s Rise.”

He flashed a guilty smile.

“You never..?” Pomni began.

“I only made it about 600 pages through the novel before I had to return it to the library.”

He laughed shortly. Pomni managed a laugh as well. They both laughed for a small bit. Soon, Jax’s laughter turned to crying. He placed his forehead in his fist.

“I’m sorry… I’m sorry… I-It’s not like a man to cry, I-”

“Hush,” Pomni approached him and, after a long moment of trepidation, managed to place a hand on his shoulder.

“You needn’t hide anything else from me…”

Alright this took a while XD Some of these plants ended up having very interesting names given that their English entomology is vague, muddled or doesn't apply to this world. I put most of these under the cut because there are a lot of trees.

Daayadubel | Aspen, Poplar

Fun Facts:

-> Because English "birch" probably comes from the latin words for "bright/white/to shine," I'm choosing to make a variety of birch that actually glows. Tanaŕa Hassku (shining white-bark/shining birch)

-> Creating the word for beech resulted in me creating the word for "to feed." It's named for its nuts that are so popular as prey-lures and livestock treats

-> Not sure I want laurels to have the same meanings of victory but it could be interesting; give the trees more meanings you me to mess around with for loners too

->Redwoods were straightforward

-> So. A lot of these very hella complicated hella fast. In Summary:

Apple - used to refer to all fruits, only became specific recently Spruce - apparently named for being from Prussia Sequoia - appears to be a made up word?? Like the tree is real but no entomology?? Camphors and Cinnamon plants are both not native to Europe or the Americas Oak - old english word just became the word for "tree" Cherry and plum are both Anatolian in original apparently

-> There are two variants of locust, the spiny version (Senatuŕu) and the harmless version (Senatuŕu Dakra). The spiny version is vastly more common than the bald/spineless version.

-> Apparently myrtles are a kind of periwinkle? Who knew

[romancemoon]

this is ooc, but i'm curious if virote likes incense? and if he does what his favorite scents are? because i love incense and i'd love to try what he enjoys

✨ @r1ck37 ty!

vi rly loves incense... reminds him of sitting in his grandmother’s home ( on his dad’s side ) on srisati strawberry farm, in the kitchen with his grandparents, and preparing long beans they just picked down some dirt road near the house... windows open, doors open, rain falling, and multiple incense lit around the kitchen. he loves incense!

usually he makes his own. if vi can make something, he’ll usually make it. the scents he likes are like...

the fresh scent of cinnamon, with some clove thrown in.

eucalyptus but edged with camphor, shaved cedarwood, musk and oakmoss.

lavender with lemongrass so it doesn’t make him super sleepy.

in terms of incense he likes to buy, he really likes these hanga pine ones. and the plum blossom scent by shoyeido. aaaand he also likes to use cones. :) anyway he’s really attracted to super woody scents. like being in a forest in the rain.

straight up it’s bedtime for him, he’s at his vanity doing some fancy skincare shit, and he’s got incense lit. the lights are low. and he feels peaceful.

Role of Incense sticks in Indian Tradition

The Indian culture is notable for different rituals and ceremonies taking place at homes, offices, or temples. During these rituals, one comes across priests burning camphor, incense sticks, or dhoop, amongst other offerings.

The burning of Agarbattis, dhoop, and other incense products is one of the stages of worship, out of a total of sixteen steps. Our forefathers established the whole process of worshipping God, but have you ever considered why you go through such rituals of burning incense products?

The following guides by experts at Satya incense explain the 6 prominent reasons.

The Agarbatti fumes cleanse the air, resulting in a sacred atmosphere

Incense is a simple, fast, and easy available technique to mask unpleasant odours in the home, such as those caused by cooking, dogs, or wet clothing. The fragrances of myrrh, cedar, rose, and sandalwood will purify the air, bringing with them a sense of freshness and a new start.

The agarbatti perfume helps to keep your mind quiet while meditating and worshipping the Lord.

Inhaling incense aroma allows you to focus and lower stress levels. It refreshes your mind and clears mental obstructions. Agarbatti scents have amazing effects and often find application in aromatherapy. Incense cones also find applications at meditational centres during practice sessions for reducing anxiety levels.

Incense fragrance is responsible for communicating the worshipper’s word to the Almighty.

Burning incense is often considered the spiritual doorway. Incense is and has been used in various faiths across the globe daily for thousands of years, including Buddhism, Hinduism, and Christianity.

In addition to making your surroundings smell pleasant, the aroma also helps to keep the atmosphere clean, which is necessary for performing rituals.

According to several traditions, such as Ayurveda, India’s ancient medicine system, it is necessary to restore the balance between natural components before genuine healing can occur. It is possible to enhance and balance your meditation practice by using incense as a source of fire in conjunction with the other earthy elements like water, earth, space, and air during activities such as meditation.

As the perfume purifies the air, the atmosphere becomes more positive as bad energy eliminates itself from the area.

Keeping your area clean on an energy level may be just as beneficial to your well-being as keeping it physically clean. Cleaning your environment regularly enhances the energy flow in your space, bringing more good energy into your home and workspace. With the aid of your favorite incense, you can effortlessly purify the energy in your environment in a matter of minutes.

Incense and Indian traditions

Burning incense sticks promotes positivity, and hence many rituals in different sects and religions see applications of incense. This ritual represents the human sacrifice to society. In Hinduism, burning incense is very symbolic and has a deep meaning. Although incense sticks burn totally to ashes, their influence is felt via the pleasant smells that last in a place. This ceremony depicts the sacrifice of a human being to the greater good. Agarbatti also finds applications as air fresheners daily, in addition to this.

Final thoughts!

The incense sticks motivate us to abandon our desires and devote ourselves to the greater good of humanity, just as it burns itself for our benefit when we use it.

Satya incense has now established itself as a scent associated with Indian culture. The vividly colored sticks and intoxicating smells may be seen all around the nation, from temples to private residences.

Experiment in formulation

For the upcoming winter holiday I wanted to create blends using local flavors but also incorporate some of the more traditional resins that I recently acquired [x]. Considering the winter solstice celebrates both the longest night and the Sun’s return to the north I thought it appropriate to have two separate recipes. These blends are primarly (for pleasure) aesthetic driven and will be used for holiday celebrations.

Solstice Incense (part 1)

Longest Night: For this blend I wanted to evoke a cold winter night. Dark and unsettling, a harsh chill in the air, standing in the evergreen woods staring up at a starlight sky.

To create a cooling herbal blend I looked to peppermint, balsam needle, mugwort. I first burnt each herb individualy to get a feel of their character. (I have an idea for a tool to do this without having to have a charcoal so might post about that later). The peppermint is cold on the eyes, quickly fading into an herbaceous scent. The balsam is very woody and not like its fresh quality. I often burn mugwort solo and is really present not for its scent but for body (smoke) as well as a dream stimulant to reflect the desired nature of the blend. I powdered the peppermint and balsam with mortar and pestle and put them through a sieve, and mugwort is well...mugwort so it goes in the coffee grinder and gets ground the best it can. I want this blend to be very cooling so it will be heavy on the peppermint.

In trying to give a nod to the longest night, and winter solstice: amanita mushroom is included in a small amount

myrrh is the foreign resin of choice to incorporate. It seemed fitting as it is the darker of the two popular ones this time of year. It also rounds out the blend offering some base notes against the cool top notes.

In this blend I would prefer to use black birch bark or wintergreen leaf for a camphoraceous scent adding to either the base or herb material of this recipe (though I’d have to experiment in burning each), but propolis from my neighbor is very wintergreen and used here in a small amount, this is really interesting because the propolis from our bees is much more similar to spruce resin and wouldn’t work in this recipe.

The wood base of this blend consists of Balsam wood and charcoal, (I thought the darkness of the charcoal would be a nice touch and will help with combustion). Balsam oleo-resin is harvested from blisters on the fir tree then mixed with alcohol so it’s easier to work with, I dilute this tincture of balsam resin with a bit of water which also offers a chilling coniferous green scent with hints of orange citrus. The liquid activates guar gum which is the binder to make this blend into cones. The dough is kneaded and left to cure for a few hours in the fridge. After curing, to let the aromas mingle, cones are formed and left to dry.

Test batch recipe:

3 tbs balsam fir wood, 1 tbs charcoal, 1.5 tsp peppermint, 1 tsp balsam needle, .5 tsp mugwort, amanita, 3/8 tsp myrrh, 1/8 tsp propolis, 3/4 tsp guar gum, (all powdered), 3/4 tsp balsam tincture, 3 tbs water (yield 18 1/2 tsp cones + 2 pellets)

Test burn:

Firstly, my sample piece burned all the way through at a nice steady rate but there might be a bit too much charcoal or binder as it benefited from one re-lighting. (The second cone burnt fine so it was just not dry enough) The scent is definitely dominated by a woody theme. The myrrh comes through in the perfect amount, but the coldness isn’t quite at the right level (next time I might add some camphor oil or the others mentioned). Still the smoke offers a slight cooling sensation and evokes sitting out by a bonfire on a cold winters night. (burn time ≈ 25 mins)
