Sabine's tests started with common poisons. Ones that normally acted very swiftly were easy to find and may not have taken as long as she said. This was an uncommon poison, however. She raised a hand to Meesei when she asked about results, but didn't face her. It took another five minutes of carefully placing drop after drop of a testing solution into her mortar, which had a pool of the water within. With her other hand, she gently stirred the mix with a stick. The test ended when one more drop suddenly caused the liquid to turn into a deep, viscous green.

"Poison. A slow poison." Sabine said finally. She faced Meesei, "I need to test more."

Now Fendros was fully armed and standing quietly. With that conclusion, he bit his lip and looked out onto the main chamber. "Very well. Kaleeth, are you fine here with Rhazii as well?"
