Algiebian Tal

''The primary unit of monetary exchange within the confines of the Algieban Empire, the Tal is made of solid gold. Despite the inflation that runs rampant in the sector, the Tal may still be used for the purchase of wines and other necessities.''

You can get two Algiebian Tals from the dying engineer on the spaceship Attagi, on Ishtao Station. Just go talk to him, and he will give you the two tals and then die. You can use one of the tals to purchase a bottle of Vegan Wine from the bartender. The wine is useful in recovering the Algiebian Crystals.

A handful of other Algiebians carry Tals as well, which can be looted from their corpses after you kill them, but there's really no need as you will only need one.
