Meesei nodded to Ariel. "He speaks the truth. Trodh produce a deadly poison shortly after death, but swallowing them whole prevents that." To reinforce the validity of what she was saying, she grabbed one of the creatures from the waterskin and ate it whole in front of her. "Feel free to join us in the pond if you like, and perhaps try one of the trodh. I won't force you to, but I will say, they are rather good. At the very least, I'm guessing you will want a few dead ones to experiment with. If they can produce such a strong poison naturally, I can only imagine what you could do with it. Though, with the concoctions I have seen you make, I wouldn't be surprised if you made a health potion out of it."

Ahnasha gave a slight laugh when Fendros touched one of the more sensitive areas of her foot, though she tried not to call attention to it. "The potions have taken effect, the salve is working, so overall, I feel fine." She placed her hands on her stomach and smiled to draw a bit more attention towards their child. "Only about three and a half more months to go. I'm about halfway through. Just think, in only a few more months, we'll have our own cub. I've been talking with Meesei about the phases of the moons, and it seems that there will be three different phases around the time I should be due. Based on that, we think it might end up being a Cathay, Cathay-raht...or Senche."
