The pale waystone carries Doku, the palace archivist, and Cael into Veyrfall’s crowded stone infirmary. Herb-scented blankets cover exhausted patients along every wall, while hurried healers move between them.
Healer Cael Veyrin
These are our stores, Lady Nohara. Marrowroot for three days, vitality tincture for two, and only one sealed chest of clean bandages.
Cael spreads route markers across a scarred table. Green stones indicate safe valley paths, red stones mark ambushes, and blackened markers show roads abandoned after landslides or raids.
Healer Cael Veyrin
The fevered miners need your restorative formula first. Then the children with winter-lung. The wounded travelers can survive until we secure more supplies.
Elsin Vey
I will witness every count and classification. Veyrfall’s submission grants access, not ownership of its patients or stores.
Beyond the infirmary doors, distant bells toll in a strained sequence. The sound rolls down from the unsafe mountain road, and every exhausted healer turns toward it.
Healer Cael Veyrin
Another arrival. If the bells continue, we will have more patients before we finish naming these.

FAILURE (Legendary Healing, rolled -1)
Doku moves to the fevered patients, opening her medkit and examining their breath, skin, and pulse. The infirmary’s restorative stores remain beyond her reach, guarded by Cael’s dwindling supply chest.
Doku Nohara
The medicine needed to complete this treatment is not here.
She applies what the medkit can provide, cooling brows and steadying airways, but the fever continues to cling beneath the surface. Her method arrests the worst decline without restoring the patients.
Healer Cael Veyrin
The marrowroot and vitality tincture are nearly gone. Without them, your treatment cannot reach the illness’s core.
The fevered patients remain alive and temporarily steadier, yet their recovery is no longer a matter of skill alone. Cael’s unopened stores are now the necessary focus of care.
Elsin Vey
Your intervention bought time, Lady Nohara, but it did not heal them. The missing remedies determine what can happen next.
“"Getting the medical supplies is easy with my monopoly. However let's first fix these patients." I go to heal these people.”
SUCCESS (Legendary Healing, rolled -1)
Doku returns to the fevered patients and works without waiting for marrowroot or tincture. Her fingers trace cooling seals while the medkit’s last clean salts dissolve into the wash.
She adjusts each airway, draws the fever from overheated skin, and binds the treatment to the patients’ pulses. Their breathing steadies, then their temperatures fall together.
Healer Cael Veyrin
They are past the danger. You reached the illness with almost nothing.
The fever breaks across the infirmary. Several patients wake clear-eyed, while the others settle into restorative sleep, their immediate treatment complete.
Elsin Vey
The intervention succeeded, but the medkit’s fever salts and cleansing tincture are exhausted. That cost is exact and recorded.
Healer Cael Veyrin
Then the stores can wait for the wounded. These patients will live long enough to receive proper recovery doses when your supplies arrive.
Cael covers the recovering patients, and the infirmary’s strained rhythm eases. Doku has secured their lives, though her portable reserves are spent.
“"Palace Archivist first and foremost. What's your name? Second of all call the Masked Clerk here. He works for me. Tell him to bring my medical supplies here though the portals we made."”
SUCCESS (Legendary Diplomacy, rolled +3)
Doku Nohara
Palace Archivist, first and foremost, what is your name? Second, call the masked clerk here. He works for me. Tell him to bring my medical supplies through the portals we made.
Elsin Vey
Elsin Vey, Lady Nohara. I will summon the masked clerk and state your order without alteration.
Elsin places, a middle-aged elf woman with a slender build, warm brown skin, a narrow face, and long silver braids, wearing layered violet robes and soft leather boots, both palms upon the pale waystone and speaks the observatory’s governing phrase. Its glow deepens, opening a clear sightline through the lattice to the Nohara refuge.
The Masked Clerk
I heard you, Lady Nohara. I will gather the marked medical supplies and send them through the connected portals at once.
The masked clerk steps through the pale opening with sealed satchels and two supply chests. He sets them beside Cael’s table, keeping each container closed and identified.
Elsin Vey
The route is now keyed to your refuge as well as Veyrfall. Future medical consignments may pass directly here, bypassing the unsafe mountain road.
Cael’s dwindling stores gain a second source without disturbing the patients. The portal remains open under Elsin’s witness, and the arriving supplies are ready for Veyrfall’s next treatment.

“"Masked Clerk what's your name? Second, thankyou for your assistance. Now to get these people healed and I'm the best doctor around."”
SUCCESS (Legendary Healing, rolled -1)
Doku Nohara
Masked Clerk, what is your name? Thank you for your assistance. Now get these people healed. I am the best doctor around.
The Masked Clerk
My name is Ilyan Marr, Lady Nohara. Your command is understood, and your supplies are ready.
The masked clerk opens the sealed satchels and chests, revealing clean restorative salts, marrowroot, vitality tincture, and fresh bandages. Doku gathers the remedies beside Cael’s scarred table.
Doku works through the infirmary with swift precision, dosing the fevered miners and strengthening each treatment with the newly arrived ingredients. Her healing seals settle into their pulses.
Healer Cael Veyrin
Their breathing is clear, and the fever has broken cleanly. You have restored the ward’s immediate supply and its patients together.
Across the infirmary, the patients breathe easier. Cael’s stores are replenished, the wounded can now receive proper care, and the portal continues to glow steadily behind the healers.
Elsin Vey
I will witness the successful treatment and the supplies used. Veyrfall’s infirmary is stable under your direction, Lady Nohara.
