So there's a problem.

[Introductions? No, none of that.

The video comes online to show two individuals: Alucard, who clearly has seen better days on account of how grungy he appears, twigs in his hair, and a bottle of wine in his hand. Rosella, clearly dressed in a gown fit for a princess, is on the ground with eyes closed and not breathing. As Alucard moves his phone to show her looking kind of dead, it's clear that both these people are in the recently revealed gardens where the suspicious tea party is located.]

I found this young lady like this, along with an empty tea cup. Presumably, she's been poisoned, but I lack any ability to undo the damage done. I don't believe she is dead, but who knows how much longer she has.

[He has a drink from his bottle before he continues.]

If someone has any knowledge on these teas and what best to do next, that'd be ideal.

Oh, that's a shame.

I'd recommend getting out of there before someone thinks it was your fault. Better safe than sorry. She'll wake up eventually.

[He eyes the username with a bit of suspicion.]

A bit late for that considering I've posted this rather publicly.

And how certain are you that she'll wake?

[perfectdevil]

True, but least being called on after the fact gives you enough time to explain yourself. There's nothing worse than being stumbled upon.

[ Shrug. ]

And I'm certain, because even if she dies, she'll simply pop back up again in a day or so. We can't die here, Monsieur. The City does not allow it, despite how it offers every opportunity to do so.

[A sudden, bitter sounding laugh escapes Alucard. He pauses only to have a swig from his bottle before he responds.]

Oh, and what's the catch? People come back as... what, night creatures? Some fucked up ghoul?

Revival from death has never been that simple.

[ Lestat has to hide a little laugh behind his fingers at that. You're not wrong, buddy, and yet... ]

A little memory loss, I think. That's all. I don't believe she'll recall what killed her, or the circumstances.

In some ways, it's almost kind. Though I suppose it might differ on a case-by-case basis.

[reposing]

Interesting. So the only limitation is memory loss. That's... actually quite extraordinary. The power to accomplish revival, true revival.

Still, I'd prefer to not risk it, if it can be avoided.
