Yet it seems there was more to this than just reassuring the sultan of his intention. There was a woman of Vudrani origin that had more to say to him. More about the serpentmen that had been encountered at the pool. He was now starting to regret having not cleared it out as intended more so. Nor had he the methods to seal that cave up.<strong>"You assume correctly. Nearly cost us our lives just reaching the pool."</strong>He imagined they would be concerned about the serpentmen on principle. But he would ask anyway since it meant it wasn't just Padhe this coven had affected.<strong>"Meghali, how is it the Vudra became concerned with this coven? Are these serpentmen still connected to the coven? As for my late father, I'm under the impression he still lives."</strong><br/><br/><hr/><br/>Diabelle had a angel and a devil upon her shoulders wrestling with the knowledge of her own children bring first born or stay content with being the first wife. She kept her eyes upon the Songbird since Diabelle knew she held her fate in her hands.<strong>"Were it not for her I'd have died within the desert."</strong>Diabelle countered to her guards since in her mind it was true and she'd not forget it. Both methods were dangerous and she would need to consider it. She did, briefly. The bitterwort would not be considered since it would harm Songbird. She'd not risk it. As for this douching she'd keep it in mind.  However she took a moment to collect her thoughts. Her mind was thinking back to when songbird and Darius came to her home. Was it then that she caught with child?<strong>"Mmm... it's not certain if it is my husband whom sired with the Songbird."</strong>She said to her guards and then some to the acolyte.<strong>"Please, might you tell more of the mint and corn douche. The mixture and how this treatment is done for the sake of other mefical minds and how long does the concoction remain potent?"</strong>She paid five gold for it but she seemed like she was hesitating on this suggestion by her guards. Diabelle was letting her heart think for her. She'd not say for the acolyte to administer it.
