The tallow-hats would attack a merchant ship carrying phrax crystals and escort the ship back to a phrax mine. The mine sergeant there would be re-stamp the cargo, so that he could sell the same phrax twice to the Academy of Flight. The part that the tallow-hats took was called the tallow-tax.[1]
Customs
The tallow-hats wore wide-rimmed hats with tallow-candles that were believed both to sharpen the reflexes and give courage[1].
