Line 2:

Wind fruit is a pare-sized green fruit with four fleshy lobes. It has a particular sugar that gets rapidly fermented into alcohol by microbes in the [[yinrih]]'s gut. Gas is a byproduct of this fermentation process, giving the fruit its name.

One fruit is enough to get a yinrih drunk. The whole fruit is often cut into its four lobes to share among friends. The effect is hit and miss with humans. Even some who have lived at [[Focus]] their whole lives eating yinrih food are unaffected.

A crooked politician's duplicity may be compared to the fruit's multiple lobes. The fruit's intoxicating effect may bring to mind the vapidness of some public figures, and a statesman given to long-winded public speeches may be likened to the fruit's association with flatulence.
