Nowadays the hellebore plant has strong associations with serenity, peace, and tranquility, but this has not always been the case. In Victorian times the flowers of the hellebore plant signified delirium, and some cultures today still see the flowers as representing stress, anxiety, and scandal. Also known as the midnight ruffle, black hellebore leaves, root, and underground stem (rhizome) are used to make medicine. Be careful not to confuse this plant with white hellebore, which has been used as a poison. Despite serious safety concerns, people take black hellebore for nausea, worms, kidney infections, colds, and constipation.

[ hm.

he's going to wager that she's under the surface, then, watching her for a moment before coming to sit across from her. ]

How you holdin' up in there? Sorry that we can't pass you anythin' to make the stay more comfortable.

That's a shame. I am a little hungry.

But I'm all right.

[ a wry twist to his mouth. ]

Yeah, I bet. [ kind of easy! to work up an appetite! stabbing an npc and setting a church on fire! ] Cam told me about tryin' to help you out at the theater. What kinda sedative did you guys try to use?

I'm not sure. I suspect they slipped me something when we ate together that afternoon.

[ but that reminds her... ]

The herbs you told me about before... lavender and poppy and the others. I tried gathering them, but...

[ a bit of a distant blip of some emotion, as she thinks on that. ]

[ sighing softly, looking at her and just - feeling hurt for her. she didn't deserve this at all, and now that she's so emotionally blank there really is no easy way to read her. ]

I should've tried to make somethin' when you first mentioned it to me. Or asked for somethin' from home, if Pesti could get it for me... I'm sorry, Kate.

Did you... do you remember what happened last night?

[sootprints]

No. I was asleep.
