Flora and Fauna

Azir had a legend about truthberry jam, an Azish fruit, which says that those who consume the berries speak only the truth until the next sunset. The berries themselves were harmless, but the leaves and stalks of truthberry plants could be burned, which makes people intoxicated and euphoric.
