Quest-Related Events

You will first encounter her upstairs in Tel Mora, speaking with Llayne Sadri after having taken a look at Mistress Dratha's condition.

Menwendel: "I'll check on her again in the morning. For now, just get some rest, ay? You look awful."

Llayne Sadri: "Yes … thank you, Menwendel. And please, let me know straight away if you make any progress on a cure."

Menwendel: "Of course. And I meant what I said. Sleep, Llayne."

Llayne Sadri: "Yes, yes …. And who might you be?"

As soon as you get too close in your investigation, Nerandas and the Black Snails will kidnap the alchemist and take her to Pinsun:

"Back, you imp-faced brute! I have moldy bread and I'm not afraid to use it!
Wait … I've seen you before."

Relax, I'm here to help.

"Oh. Sorry about the imp-face thing. Your face is really quite … I don't know. Never mind.
I'm glad you're here! I was just preparing to make my escape. Should be a lot easier now. Why are you here anyway? Did Gray-Skies send you?"

Llayne sent me. We think Savarak's trying to poison Tel Mora. <Show her the malignant growth.>

"Well that's gross. Hmm. Looks like it was stitched to the lower stalk, but these striae …. Oh no. It's the spores! The growth vents spores into the tower that—never mind.
I think I can help Dratha, but I need a sample of the toxin they used."

I'll find your sample and put a stop to things here.

"Nerandas is hiding in here somewhere. If you deal with him, these brutes will scatter like roaches under a lantern.
Now, I can make it back to Vos on my own. You give these bastards a good drubbing, find that toxin, and meet me back at Tel Mora!"

Speaking to her again:

"Go on then. Stop Nerandas and find a sample of that toxin! I'll make my way out of here while you're providing a distraction."

Gather the items and return to Tel Mora:

"There you are! I gave Mistress Dratha some chokeweed bitters to slow the effect of the spores, but this is like binding a troll's hands with fishing twine.
Did you bring the toxin sample I asked for? I can't brew an antidote without it."

I have it right here.

"Perfect! I'll get to work on this right away.
Oh, one other thing. Llayne took off toward Vos with a handful of guardsmen. I think they mean to arrest that guar's arse, Savarak. She might need your help."

All right, I'll track her down.

"If you find that oaf, give him a good kick in the nethers for me. Y'ffre knows how long it's going to take me to clean up my nursery."

Before confronting Savarak, she'll say:

"Checking up on me? I've got this situation handled—cross my heart and all that. Mistress Dratha will be fine. You just go help Llayne, all right?"

Dialogue

After the quest, she can be found in her nursery.

• "Cracked any more snail shells lately? Actually, if you do, bring me the mucus."
• "I've almost got this place back in order. Poor Gray-Skies keeps finding glass with his feet though."
• "Those spores may help me devise a treatment for other infections of tower fungus. At least something good could come of this."

How are things now that Savarak's gone?

"Never better, really. I think they were ready to offer me a place in House Telvanni, but Mistress Dratha and I aren't really master-student types.
She's offered me free use of her resources for my studies though!"

Does that mean you'll have more potions available?

"Only if I think there's a demand for it, but part of our agreement requires me to give Mistress Dratha first pick.
I won't complain if you stop in to see what I'm up to. You're always welcome in my shop."
