Seeming to try and come to terms with the situation, the Lieutenant saluted swiftly at the command, and the mention of an assassin. As she rushed off fast there was a notable worry showing on the younger guardswoman's face, but she nod her head a little at the instructions. "Alright sir, please keep her safe then." Her voice was a bit concerned, but she waited, as he knocked and found the door locked. There was a click a moment later, the Queen opening the way. Lilian was laying on the couch, now cut out of her armor, in the nude. The queen had only cut straps that could be replaced easier than cutting the tough suit itself, but had gotten the guard-captain out of her clothing.<br/><br/>On that note, she had a toned stomach, firm looking bosom and quite an inviting looking, somewhat puffy mound though the timing for such observations was a bit poor given the struggling breath she was having, her head resting on a pillow. "I hope the healer gets here soon, she could use some relief." She said this seriously, holding the guard captain's hand. The warrior woman was turning pale little by little, trying to inhale yet seeming to be having trouble. Slight bit of blood showed on her lips after a moment as she clutched on her throat, trying to swallow. "Shh, rest back and save your strength, you'll be okay." The Queen insisted quietly, focusing on the woman in her care.<br/><br/><div class="floatright">(http://drakonis.org/uploads/7/v/0/7v0ng7m0e3/2010/09/19/20100919234308-b1b31fde.jpg)</div>There was a slam at the door as a young woman wearing a flowing blue outfit, her clothing adorned with gold-shaded strips with runes inlaid to the cloth, her words a whisper already as she moved on closer. Her fingers coming to a rest on Lilian's chest, as the guard outside closed the door behind her, at least till it was just ajar, the other guard woman, Natasha, seeming to wait outside there as well.<br/><br/>"Poisoned." The woman in blue started, the Queen nodding and gesturing at the wine. "She said it was Wolfsbane." The Queen had only barely said this as the woman began to chant, her whispers plain as day weren't what the church recommended as a religious doctrine. If anything, it sounded like a praise to the Old Gods, but she was no druid, her words of praise more ritualistic and formal. The symbols in her outfit giving a faint light, inlaid metal in their writing seeming to glow as she laid her hands on the Guard Captain's chest, and a pulse of light seemed to flow through the said guard-captain.<br/><br/>Lilian fainted, but the effect of her breath easing out was immediate and apparent, as the woman in blue turned towards Tehr. "And you? Did you drink any?" She asked full of concern. "The Queen is safe or her name would've been at the top of the list of who to treat but no mention was made of you." Her words were firm and serious as she looked him over. "No, you don't look affected and just holding it to appear strong for others. But the poison shouldn't take effect quickly so did you wait or.." She sniffed the wine, and grimaced. "Whoever laced this with poison used more than a usual dose.." Her tone was a bit quiet, but venomous in itself. "There's an alchemist in town with a shop, they might be able to tell something about it but..." She hummed again, frowning. "...not easy..."<br/><br/>The Queen sighed finally, turning to look at the healer. "Helen, please take care of Lilian, and make sure nobody else is hurt. Please take care of the situation here." She waited till the blonde healer had nod, turning towards Tehr. "The wine was a gift from the House Saari, so I didn't think twice about enjoying some of it. Its mere custom that Lilian has the first glass but this is..." She shook her head. "I don't believe House Saari stands to gain anything from things like this, but I have to say this makes it a difficult situation." Her expression was serious. "But it was delivered along with a letter carrying their seal, not given to me in person." She muttered somewhat, before Natasha cleared her throat as the two of them were leaving the living room.<br/><br/>"Lieutenant Whitestone yelled me on the way that she got all the kitchen-staff gathered up now and a servant boy tried to run as soon as the guards stepped in the kitchen." Her words were serious but there was a fire in her eyes, this Natasha was a red-haired woman, and based on the ample bust, and bit of freckles, might carry more of their traits in her as well, and the fire in her eyes suggested a desire for vengeance was strong in her, as perhaps were other desires as well.<br/><br/>"The way things have gone, I wonder if we'll end up losing time to this and miss any hope of a fun evening. But this is an insult that needs to be looked into fast." The Queen seemed a touch torn, a hand resting on Tehr's side, hugging him lightly to her, at least in front of her own Guard.
