The attendant escorts, a young adult woman with olive skin, straight dark hair, and a russet vest over a cream shirt, Doku through guarded corridors toward the quarantine intake, carrying the false writ and recovered emblem inside folded cloth. Serrin Voss remains behind in the service room under watch.
At the intake, the quarantine warden waits beside the red cordon, while the palace examiner stands beneath the royal seal. Vale’s newly established authority is posted beside the entry.
the hospital attendant
The evidence is intact, Lady Nohara. The writ was recovered from the records chamber, and the altered emblem has not been handled directly.
the quarantine warden
Then place both within the evidence basin. No clerk will copy the text until their condition and chain of custody are entered.
The attendant sets the folded cloth inside the marked basin. Ward staff gather beyond the clean threshold, watching in silence as the palace examiner inspects the seals without touching them.
the palace examiner
The signature resembles the senior ward official’s hand, but resemblance is not condemnation. The record must state what was recovered, where, and from whom.
The warden opens a fresh register. Around the cordon, apprentices and guards wait to learn whether the forged command will be formally condemned or preserved for a higher tribunal.
“"It's a forgery. Someone has been actively trying to steal from us."”

Doku Nohara
It is a forgery. Someone has been actively trying to steal from us.
Doku’s declaration settles over the intake. The altered emblem’s copied geometry and the false writ’s ink bleed now stand as evidence of an attempted seizure, not an honest requisition.
the palace examiner
Then record that conclusion as your medical assessment, Lady Nohara. The attempt targeted remedies under your authority, and the suspected theft is now a matter for tribunal review.
the quarantine warden
The basin will preserve both objects. I will add attempted theft to the chain-of-custody entry and forbid their removal without three lawful witnesses.
The warden inscribes the finding, but the palace examiner adds Doku’s accusation to the formal record as well. Her authority protects the stock, while her name becomes tied to the charge.
the hospital attendant
The remedies remain secured, Lady Nohara. The stolen authority has been exposed before it could command another delivery.
A clerk, a young adult woman with a slim build, medium-brown skin, and tightly curled black hair, wearing a russet tunic over a cream shirt, seals the register with red wax. The forged writ and emblem are secured, the attempted theft is formally recognized, and palace scrutiny now follows every order bearing Doku’s command.
“"Good, let it remain secured. No medical official gets out without my or my second in command's approval. All will be secured so no thieves or forgery can just take our medicine and supply enemies."”

Doku Nohara
Good. Let it remain secured. No medical official leaves without approval from me or my second in command. All medicine and supplies are to be secured against thieves and forged orders.
The quarantine warden records the command beneath the attempted-theft entry. The evidence basin remains sealed, and the marked stores stay behind the red cordon.
the quarantine warden
Understood, Lady Nohara. No medical official will leave the intake without your approval or Mistress Vale’s written confirmation.
The warden summons two guards and assigns them to the medicine stores. A departure register is placed beside the cordon, requiring the official’s name, destination, seal, and approving authority.
the palace examiner
This is restrictive, but lawful under the present theft inquiry. I will attach your order to the tribunal record and recognize your second in command as its delegated authority.
the hospital attendant
I will carry the order to Mistress Vale and ensure every ward clerk knows that no remedy or supply moves without the required approval.
Red wax closes the departure register. The forged writ and altered emblem remain secured, while the medicine stores become subject to paired authorization and witnessed custody.
“"Good, now enough work for today. I need to rest. I'm returning back to the estate. Unless is an emergency, don't call me until tomorrow." I go to the Nohara Estate.”
