1. The Tandu have recently been flooded by "grannies-in-sneakers" wanting to experience Tandu culture . . . and Inquisitor and Acceptor and Epsiarch culture.  In two recent incidents, both within the last four kilo-years, the hosts "snapped" and killed sizable numbers of venerable tourists.  Individual members of Elder species can be prevented from entering secure areas, and even restricted indefinitely to the space of the offended junior Clan if they actually violate its security.  But killing a member of an Elder race is presumed, a priori, to be a very serious breach of Galactic Tradition.

In both cases, proceedings were dropped at the behest of the wronged Elder species.  This was no doubt for the best, because it was quite evident that the resulting fines would far exceed those leveled against the Gubru after the Garth incident, and the Tandu had made it eminently clear that they would simply not pay, whatever the finding.
