[rowancrowned]

Glaewron, [ politely. ] I am in need of an apothecary. I do not suppose you would be willing to check your wares for a certain item?

[meds4sale]

[There's all the trappings of politeness in his tone save anything resembling sincerity. He is, now and forever, a little shit.]

I am, of course, most humbly at your service.

What might you require?

[rowancrowned]

A contraceptive. For use by a lady, not myself. Preferably something that would keep for several months.

[meds4sale]

I am in possession of some remedies that will induce a miscarriage if she has already conceived, and others that are more preventative.

I must ask, however, if the contraceptive would be at her behest.

Or yours.

[rowancrowned]

Preventive. [ firmly; the alternative option that the medicine seller mentioned is clearly beyond acceptability. ]

I intend to furnish her with the option, upon her request. The Inquistion is no place to raise a child.

[meds4sale]

[There's only a non-committal 'hmm'. He clearly has no issue with it.]

I do, indeed, have several physical contraceptives that may be of use and some medicinal, though the dosage may be ...tricky.

[rowancrowned]

Her frame, or her physiology?

[meds4sale]

Both.

One has a somewhat common allergen in it and the other may be hazardous to one with irregular cycles.

[rowancrowned]

Is the ingredient common in Thedas, or your home?

[meds4sale]

Much of my stock from home has either been used or expired.

However, I have adapted some of my knowledge and techniques to Thedosian medicine.

[rowancrowned]

What is the ingredient?

[meds4sale]

[He lists off a number of them, including the quantity he uses.]

...I can, of course, provide a small sample of an extraction. Put only a small drop of it on the back of her hand and if the surrounding skin reddens and itches, then you will know that she is allergic to it.

[rowancrowned]

That would be helpful. Shall I come to your rooms to retrieve it?

[meds4sale]

The extraction will take most of the afternoon. I shall leave it in your office this evening.

Labeled, of course.

[rowancrowned]

And the cost?

[meds4sale]

I will charge only when and if a remedy is settled on.

For now, let us first find out if what I offer is agreeable to the young lady in question.

later

[rowancrowned]

She is not allergic.

[meds4sale]

Then I will be happy to make the mixture.

I understand it is rude to ask, but do you know what her height and weight might be.

[rowancrowned]

You have my gratitude.

It is necessary. [ pause. ] Up to my chest, perhaps. Twenty-four and one half livre. It is an Orlesian weight, I do not know the conversions.

[meds4sale]

I do.

[There's a soft 'hm', and the sound of a brush against paper]

I will have the elixir prepared by tomorrow. It should be taken once a month. Should there be disagreeable side effects, she should come to me immediately.

My discretion is, of course, guaranteed.

[rowancrowned]

How effective. I will pass along your guidance.

I have no cause to doubt it.
