"If you say so, Meesei," Ariel lifted one of the trodh from waterskin, holding firmly onto its tail. "That's one of the good things about alchemy; even the most dangerous substance can be used with another to great benefit. The trick is finding out how and what." Ariel lifted the creature up higher, but hesitated. She took a deep breath in and held it before dropping the creature into her throat and swallowing. "Oh," she said, then held her lips shut for a few seconds, "I think I could get used to that." She moved her tongue around her mouth to get some more of the taste. Judging by her reaction to the ordeal, she had sampled worse things before.

Fendros placed his hand on Ahnasha's over her stomach. "Half way," he repeated, smiling. In his mind, he tried to remember which varieties of Khajiit the ones she named were. The Cathay and Cathay-raht were at least humanoid from what Fendros could remember, though would outgrow Fendros in adulthood and perhaps adolescence. The Senche was one more likened to the size of a horse. Fendros paused for a moment to wonder how it would be to raise what would essentially be an oversized, yet intelligent cougar. It was all mostly worries and what-ifs that Fendros knew he could rightly rationalise in his mind.

Curling his fingers around Ahnasha's hand, Fendros gave her a reassuring smile. "As far as things being in the hands of the heavens, I'm sure whatever phase it is will deliver a blessing." His smile turned into a look of concern. The pause before mentioning the last variety hinted of her own concern. "Are you worried about it being a Senche?" He asked quietly.
