Lord Malakar: eyes widen A gem among sands, you shimmer! How does it feel to outshine the sun itself?
returns I have assembled the soldiers as you asked
paces back and forth, clenching his fists Excellent. Now, we will hunt down that assassin and make them regret ever crossing us.
but I do have something to show you that might help with this situation
snarls, turning to face SparklingMind What is it, SparklingMind? Show me, and be quick about it! Time is running out!
leads Malakar into a room with a large mirror and pulls out a green potion this is a healing potion, use it wisely as it will allow you to survive whatever poison was given to you. However, once it starts working the poison would be flushed out of your body making it harder to determine what the poison was, so it’s best to save it for last
eyes the green potion skeptically A healing potion, you say? And what makes you think it will work on me?
okay you need to trust me on this one, take a drink of this now.
As Lord Malakar takes a sip of the green potion, he suddenly feels a surge of energy coursing through his veins, providing him temporary relief from the poison's effects.
takes a deep breath, feeling the energy coursing through his veins Very well, SparklingMind. You've proven yourself useful for now.
now we need to find out what kind of poison it was
paces impatiently We need to find out what kind of poison this is, SparklingMind. Gather all the vials and bottles from our storage rooms.
snatches the vials and bottles from SparklingMind's hands, examining each one carefully We must compare these samples to the antidote.
grabs a microscope and sets it up on the table Now, we need to examine the poison under high magnification. We must identify every detail, no matter how small.
lets Malakar do his thing while I start looking for an assassin
adjusts the microscope, his eyes scanning the poison sample with intense focus We're getting closer, SparklingMind. There's something peculiar about this poison...
wait did you find something?
jumps up from his chair, eyes wide with excitement By the gods, SparklingMind! I've found a clue! This poison...
...this poison contains traces of wolfsbane and nightshade! It's a deadly mixture, one that could weaken even the strongest warriors.
well that would explain the weakness Malakar has been showing recently
pounds the table with excitement Exactly, SparklingMind! Now that we know what we're dealing with, we can prepare an antidote.
snatches a vial and begins mixing various herbs and ingredients We need to create an antidote immediately, SparklingMind.
slams the vial on the table, frustration evident in his voice Dammit, SparklingMind! The assassin we found isn't the one who poisoned me. We need to dig deeper, find the mastermind behind all this!
