Draught of Amber Sap
The Sap-Drinkers' cure and heresy — a measured dose of the Rootbound Hollow's hoarded sap that eases a bad case of Verdigris Lung to a bearable cough for days.
The amber is warm going down and cold afterward, a steady cool that sits where the cough was. It doesn't clean the green dust out of you; it numbs the chest and steadies the shaking hands the way a stiff drink steadies a nervous one. The Greenwake says this is the sap's mercy against a vault-sickness with no real cure: it buys days of easier breath at the cost of the dose wearing thin, and the cough that comes back sounds worse for having been muffled. Veth disagrees. Veth's hands haven't stopped shaking in a year, and drinks it anyway, and still disagrees.
