It seemed the more honest thing to do, and definitely nicer than trying to spare any feelings by leaving him with illusions that weren't true. Perhaps it was because of his fondness for wordplay and habit of composing lyrics, but the raven was well aware of the power words possessed. That's why he didn't play around with the truth, or hold back. It was so easy to misunderstand.

"It also helps mask more pungent flavors in other herbs, making them more easy to drink." The last was just a guess on his part, but it seemed a fair assumption as it had appeared in plenty of other teas.
