[D3 EM] Acting Out (Tremaine Pavilions)

[Maester Simon]

"Uh, please come in mi'lady." Simon waved Liliane in, while keeping the flap open for the mummer to take his leave. "And please take a seat." he indicated at one of the chairs in his tent that had seen better days. After she had seated herself, the young maester turned his attention to her. "Indigestion mi'lady?"

[Liliane Marten]

She nodded as she felt her insides twist. "Mmhmmm!"

[Maester Simon]

"Mmhm..." Simon scratched his stubble, humming as the Marten lady offered him a legitimate distraction after the mummer. "Too much drink and food, too little water. Tsk, tsk." he shook his head. "But worry not, mi'lady, we'll sort you out in no time." with that he began to dig through his bags, pulling out small pouches and vials that he arranged on his bed. "A little bit of this and a little bit of that, oh and this ought to help too." After a while two small pouches and vials rested on his bed. Next, he produced a mortar and pestle filling the mortar with the contents of his vials. A pinch from each pouch followed. "Make sure to rest afterwards, humm-humm." Simon hummed as he ground the herbs to fine dust. "This will taste awful, aye it will. But that just means it's working." He had heard the same words several times himself.

Satisfied with his work, he scraped the resulting mixture from the mortar and let it fall on a piece of paper. Then he folded the paper so that fine powder could not fall off. "Now, take this to your rooms and mix it well with hot water. Then... make sure that you are close to a privy, for your stomach with turn and tumble rather violently for a while. After that, it should get better, though you might want to eat lightly later today." He handed the paper to Liliane, smiling as he did so.

[Liliane Marten]

"I'll take terrible tasting over this," she said stroking her upset stomach. A moment later she let out an unpleasant sounding burp. She gladly accepted the paper-bound powder when offered. "Thank you Maester. I will go do just that. I don't think I'll be up for eating much until after lunch anyways." She gave an awkward curtsy and made to scurry off to make the herbal tea.

[Maester Simon]

"Hmhm, and if your stomach keeps acting, do come back." Simon nodded. "In case it wasn't the food."

[Liliane Marten]

"Of course. Thank you!" she said turning back around, "I really hope it doesn't come to that." She wriggled her nose as her stomach churned. "I-I gotta go. Thank you again."

And she fled making her

As Liliane left, Simon slumped on his bed, shaking his head. What a morning this had been. Surely the day could not end any worse.
