Changes in Vials

Three important changes related to vials have just occurred.

1: vials that existed up till just before now may be
(note: MAY BE - at your option) used with IMAGINE.
IMAGINE is a process with no guarantees. Use at your risk.

How do you tell vials that may be used with IMAGINE?
Just probe them. They have a special look.

2: You may now use POUR vial INTO othervial. This is
noted in HELP POUR. If the contents of both vials is
the same (both health, both mending, etc) and the one
you are pouring INTO is not already full, then some
or all of the one you're pouring FROM will go INTO the
one you're pouring into. If you keep doing this, you'll
see just how many sips vials now hold.

3: FILL vial FROM pot - this is changed also. Concoctionists
may note mention of this in HELP CONCOCTIONS. The basic
idea is that you can FILL into a vial even if it's already
got stuff in it. Imagine the possibilities!

Vials that are not special, and thus not usable for IMAGINE -
these vials can be used for POUR ... INTO. The other vials,
the ones that you MAY OR MAY NOT wish to try with IMAGINE,
totally AT YOUR OWN RISK - those other vials cannot be used
with POUR ... INTO.

Vials now hold a lot more. You should be able to use POUR
... INTO to get a non-artefact vial as full as 200 sips.
Artefact vials should hold 240 sips.

The number of sips created by Seasone, or FILL from a
concoctionist - this number is unchanged (50 or 60 for
normal vials, and about twice as much for artefact vials).

We hope you can learn to live with fewer vials, now that
they hold a LOT more. DO IT!

Penned by my hand on the 16th of Miraman, in the year 454 AF.
