On page 46 is written "Eye of the ship", but I think the skill is called "Eye of the eagle / Eagle's eye" or something like that, at least in the older chapters. It's the skill that makes your vision go up in the sky for scouting

pure absinthe (green fairy) was banned in france because it contained neurotoxin that drove people crazy...
sigh nope.. Or at least partially correct, but barking up the wrong tree..

"Pure" Absynthe is still made, minus the two herbs that make you fly. It's called "Pernod", after the brothers who trademarked the distillate.
It isn't all that different from Rakya or Ouzo, and if you can get your grubby paws on the real stuff... it's 80% alcohol... Which is why you water it down...

Trademarks having as much use as enforcing patents in China in those days, and absynthe being really popular, people copied it while cutting corners selling it as "real" Absynth.
Except that they got the trademark green colour not from the proper method using a very specific and pretty expensive cultivar of wormwood, but ferrous chloride.
Which, indeed, is a neurotoxin. With a certain painter being the most post-humously famous victim.
The low-quality moonshine-type alcohol that was used by the copycats (actual Pernod uses expensive! double-distilled wine alcohol..) may well have contained methanol and the higher alcohols, giving a triple-whammy in the "how to drink yourself silly" department.

Not having a grip on the production on any of this, the french and spanish governments blamed the wormwood, and banned anything called "Absynthe", along with a host of other measures, like making it illegal to home-distill alcohol. And taxes... there must be taxes!!
The brothers Pernod simply took out the wormwood, rebranded the drink to their name, and got a license to produce, giving us the modern drink you get anywhere at a decent specialist in fine liquor.

As to how to Complete a bottle of Pernod... I suggest the Internet... :p
(or, if you live in the right countries... Pernod makes the stuff again. Not as strong, because Regulations!! but still...)

Wasn't there also an issue regarding the stills themselves. IIRC something about the stills being soldered, with the solder leeching heavy metals into the absinthe.

Many issues, but the soldering wasn't one of them. All classic copper stills are felsed and soldered. So were all copper water pipes soldered with tin-lead.
Silver-tin has become the standard only recently since the bruhaha about lead oxides from badly soldered old joints.

The main issue was the stills had to be dismantled and hidden away, possibly destroyed on the spot ( local law enforcement being... rather forceful.. about smuggling and dodging Taxes...) so they were as cheap as possible.
Which at the time meant the coolers were generally made from lead tubing ( which was the standard water pipe at the time....) , with the kettles themselves, actual large kettles.
Both of which are not really suitable to be properly cleaned...

When you do quick batches intermittently to avoid prying eyes, and hide your stuff without the proper precautions, you get copper green in your kettle, and lead oxide on the inside of your cooler. Not.Good.
Not that the criminal syndicates who produced that stuff in bulk cared. They were in it for the Profit. Drug dealers don't care about the Aftermath.. And the distillate coming out already looking like proper Absynth was considered a Bonus...
And throwing away the pre- and post-run would be a waste .... etc...

You had the same problem with classic Moonshine in the U.S. , bad wodka in Russia, etc.. Greedy people cutting corners doing something made illegal because of Taxes or Teetotallers.
In areas where home-distilling remained Thradithion, people got taught how to do things Proper, because you'd be drinking the stuff yourself...
