oil salve

A scattering of small dishes made of stone, each containing ingredients like ash, olive oil, and wax.

A mixture of olive oil and plant waxes that tidal nomads apply around their eyes, nose, and mouth to protect these mucous membranes from the harsh environment of the tidelands. This salve is often mixed with soot to darken it, helping to reduce glare.
