Daru'sira. [ Claude's quick to repeat this to himself, something else learned which feels like a valuable piece of information even if he lacks the full context of not knowing someone else's world. The same as he's done with everything passed to him by someone else. This in particular he'll remember, both because of the tea associated with it in a familiar ritual common to his own home, and all that they've talked about.

And speaking of that: Kyle's next question gets a genuine smile of amusement from him. Something stronger indeed. ]

I haven't, no. What with how everything else is so realistic here, I wouldn't be surprised to find anything stronger is every bit as effective. [ Claude goes to take a sip of his tea and then blinks upon realizing there's none left. Hm. They've talked for quite a while, haven't they? With that he'll set his empty cup back down. ] How about this - if you bring the tea next time, I know something also of the stronger variety that'd pair well with it. Or with the teas I have from home, if you'd rather try something else. Either or.

[ There's another couple seconds where Claude considers something else to himself: the conversation, everything about Thorne and the Free Cities, where to go from here. Too much to figure out all for now, but - it's not lost on him that now there's someone else to consider it all with. That'll do. ]

I should likely return in case someone needs a break from watch while we camp, and I've taken enough of your time. For now. [ This is added with a slight grin as he stands with a nod. ] Until next time, with stronger things in hand for it. And be careful in Thorne, until then.
