Business Evolution & Operational Focus
Originally a specialist import company focused on dustspice—a psycho-sensory stimulant and flavor enhancer sourced from the Mora subsector—Tyeyo Fteahrao Yoir has evolved into a pan-sectoral trade consortium, rivaling even older entities like the Company of Grandmotherly Kindness in both scale and ambition.
Historical Focus: Dustspice Trade
- Dustspice was discovered to interact uniquely with Aslan olfactory and gustatory senses, creating an intense “battle-focus” state in warriors and an aromatic euphoria in rituals.
- Sourced exclusively from Spinward Marches biosphere outgrowths, it was a luxury good until synthetic variants emerged in the 700s–3I.

Geopolitical Positioning
- Primary Rival: Iyarl Ahkha'Re (The Company of Grandmotherly Kindness)
- While Iyarl Ahkha’Re dominates the short Imperial-Hierate routes (e.g., Paal–Tlaiowaha), Tyeyo’s multi-sector web enables long-haul flexibility and market penetration
- Where the Company relies on matronal ritual legitimacy, Tyeyo uses market adaptation, speed, and broad-spectrum flexibility
- Strategic Advantage:
- Greater reach into both the Imperium's coreward trade zones and the Deep Hierate interior
- Emergent data collection capabilities, especially in cross-border cultural trends, enabling preemptive demand creation
- Headquarters: Kusyu (Dark Nebula 1223)
- Tyeyo’s central trade tower, Scentspire Yyeyo, is built into the aromatic granite canyons of Kusyu’s equatorial mesas
- Contains:
- Spice Labs – organic and synthetic dustspice R&D
- Memory Vaults – housing olfactory history scrolls from Aslan culinary lineages
- Merchant Initiate Forums – train male trade operatives for interspecies negotiation
