Night Without Stars (PoisonousIvee/Mr.Aznable)

She looked beyond happy, her eyes lighting up before she moved to hug him, "Thank you, darling! Thank you so much!"
 
After writing to Enthir about the Hist sap, the Bosmer seemed to take his sweet time getting it to them.
"You owe me largely for this one," he had wrote, "it took a lot of coin to get this out of Black Marsh. But I hope it serves the intended purpose nonetheless."
 
He held the bottle and sighed softly. He hoped this would be worth it. He moved to her lab and made a noise. "Satlyn? It's here."
 
She gasped excitedly and moved over, looking at the bottle almost apprehensively. She seemed just as nervous as he was. "Thank you, Hulara, for trusting me with something so important to you..." She said gently, "I will be as respectful as I can.."
 
She glanced at the priest's recipe every couple of seconds to make sure she was doing it right before she finished the potion. She stared at it for a second and bit her lip. You can do this, she told herself. She took a breath and picked up the bowl, bringing it to her lips and downing it quickly. It was sweet, probably from the sap, and she set the bowl down. She didn't expect anything right away but was somehow still disappointed. She suddenly felt like something slammed into her and she fell to her knees, gasping loudly in pain. The Hist that the sap came from was clearly not happy, and was taking out its anger on the poor dark elf.
 
"Th...Three..." She muttered under her breath. This was a lot more painful than she thought it would be. "J...Just...the sap not sitting right...!"
 
She tried to stand, grasping the table as a sort of support as she picked herself up. Her vision started to fade and she tried to fight it. "H...Hulara...I can't..." Her eyes sunk and she clattered from the table, hitting the floor with a thud.
 
She reached for him but her hand dropped, her breathing slow and labored. She was alive, thankfully, but her body was running hot and she was already breaking out into a cold sweat. He knew the Hist would be upset, but to this extent?
 
She was unconscious for a day and a half, finally coming to close to the evening the next day. She still had a fever, but she was awake. "Hulara...?" She croaked.
 
She was still really hot, her forehead clammy. She smiled weakly, "I'm sorry if I worried you. That hit me a lot harder than I thought.."
 
She smiled a bit more and took his hand, "I was connected to the Hist..." She told him, "for a small moment...I spoke to it and asked it if it would allow me to give you a child...it was reluctant, but ultimately agreed.."
