Reg 122 Local Customs

Regulation 122: Observance of Local Customs When operating in regions with deep cultural resonance (Thin Places), officers are advised that adherence to Local Customs involving consumption or ritual is often safer than refusal. Refusal may result in immediate ‘Hostile Environmental Reactivity’.

Alistair’s Translation: If a local spirit or a very old pub landlord tells you to drink the ‘Landlord’s Rent,’ you drink it. You might gain forty pounds of internal gravity and feel like a lead statue, but it beat being ejected from reality by a village’s collective memory.
