Object
Gatherer Summit Ceremonial Brandy Glass
A small clear snifter holding warm amber brandy, the glass cool in the hand and filled to a modest level. In the plaza Beverly Crusher lifts the tumbler’s rim to sniff and then presses the liquid to a wound, using its heat and alcohol scent to clean and calm. The glass travels between hands in urgent, improvised care, catching light as meditative focus in a chaotic rescue.

Purpose
Served as a consumable ceremonial libation in its original context; in the current events it is repurposed and used as an improvised medical reagent/antiseptic to clean, soothe, and briefly stabilize wounded civilians.
Significance
Brandy functions as an emergency lifeline and a tangible expression of Beverly’s refusal to abandon the injured—its domestic warmth and antiseptic utility crystallize the story’s ethical clash between command orders and medical duty, humanizing the crisis and focusing attention on hands-on care.
