With word that the councilbeing was already sick enough to have the red spots and be bed ridden, the best physicians that the city has are called to save him, if only to get answers out of the foolish being. The doorbeing, a tall greyhound female of the graceful clan, looks surprised, "You're all here to see the master? He's very sick you know..." When explained why they are here, she demures and allows them in, directing them to his room, where he lays atop his blanket, fur matted down with sweat, and exposed skin splotched red with the disease. He looks over at the group through barely open eyes.
Selena approaches the being with a somewhat sympathetic look on her face. "Well, you could say that. I'd say I'm here to ask more questions than just look." she replies, making her way in nevertheless moving over to the being - not directly, rather remaining a 'safe' distance - something of a token given disease being as it is. "Hello, councillor." She greets quietly, musing something to herself under her breath.
Siyu takes a deep breath as he adjusts his scented mask. Not as ornate as a lot of the others he's seen around. But enough so that the aromatic herbs at least filter the air he's breathing. So it is in the city, it stalks already. He has a few of his latest batch of test strips. "If you could please..." he holds up a strip to the greyhound. "I have a test for fever. I think it would be best if all the household were tested to see if they are running hot." he offers meekly. Prehaps they can get lucky and keep it to one household.
The Greyhound bobs her head at Siyu, "I feel fine, m'lord," she assures, but she dutifully holds the strip, then shakes it a bit, looking uncertain, "How do I use it?"
The councilbeing offers little greeting other than what could maybe be a nod.
Cythim carefully approach, from far, the sick councillor, trying to see the firsts symptoms visible on the patient. Readying some sort of mask that she wrap around her mouth and nose. She then get closer to see how the Greyhound is doing physically.
Selena looks back to Cythim briefly, before turning back to the councillor. "Would you be so kind as to describe how you were feeling leading up to this?" she asks, though it's fairly clear she isn't too convinced the being will respond at all - taking notes on the being's appearance before the salamander moves in. "Cythim, I don't know how much experience you have, but either way I'd appreciate it if you let me know what you notice; for everyone's benefit, I'd like to keep some notes just in case." she notes, producing a small water magic spell of her own for whatever it would be worth - for the time being, there wasn't much more for her to do.
Siyu lifts a hand up and he touches the mathmagic rune in the middle. There's just three colors. After extensive testing he's gotten the tempreture of normal beings...somewhere aroudn 98.5, though he has no numeric measurment for it since there's not tempreture scale. Green would be within normal range of 1 degree or so. Blue cold, Red hot. Simple, easy, effective, disposable. He will let the other healers first crack at the council member. Hoping beyond hope they could isolate the staff and prehaps stop it here. "Just hold it to your forehead, and the color will show." he looks over, "Do you have any skill in fire magic?" he asks as he has more strips.
The councilor is not the same species as the doorman. A chipmunk, though looking a bit more thin instead of the usual jovial pudginess. Drenched with sweat, with a cloth on his head doing little to help. "What... are you all doing here?" he finally asks. When the question comes he pauses again, "I felt hot, but this is a hot city, that's normal. But the sweating. Even when inside. The dizziness was not long after that. Now I can't sit up." He wheezes for breath after the long speech, but it soon calms down.
The doorbeing smiles and holds up the strip to the right place, eventually producing a simple green color, "Is that good?" she asks, "Green is good right?" Her tail wags behind her, as if proud of her result. "Can I get any of you some tea? I'm being a terrible host."
Cythim says, "The best way to pinpoint what would be his potential disease would be to try his body actions, reflex and temperatures.". Cythim notice Siyu using his contraception on the council member. "But for now, let's wait what Siyu system tells us before starting to guess what he may have caught.". While she wait, she ready her medical pack, and organize her tools and herbs. Then she hear the chipmunk talking. "You are feeling hot? We should probably try to get somewhere fresh, it would at least ease your body, since i don't believe this is actually normal.". She het next to the chipmunk. "Do you know a good place for this matter?"."
Selena clicks her tongue quietly, jotting down the comments from the councilor. "Well, we're here on report that you have contracted Red Fever." She replies quietly. "It's of utmost importance that you let us know who you've been in contact with over the last few days so we can ensure they haven't contracted the disease." She replies, closing her eyes for a few moments. "Siyu, you said? I'm surprised, but I suppose it shouldn't come as a shock he'd have his proverbial finger in more things than just the few trades I'm aware of."
A mask in place, and with a bag in each hand, Mirana drops one to knock up the door. A very simple dress on, even a covering for her hair, bound up upon the top of her head. "Pardon the delay, getting here was not a short task, grabbing supplies from stock." She says. "Mirana Solacious, pleased to see you here, Siyu, Cythim, Selena, though I'd wish for different a situation." Placing the bags upon the floor, and with quite a bit of trouble, openning them up. Once has... leather gloves, treated with what smells like a fairly strong alchohal, along with more bottles of the stuff. The other bag conatines some pages of paper, a quill embued with magics, and an assortment of supplies. "Good Siyu, please keep going, I'll take down notes. Thank you." She says, looking to the chipmonk, "It's going to be fine sweetie, we're going to ask some questions, and then get you some help, alright?" She says softly.
Siyu nods his head, "Yes Green is good, it means you are not running hot and with fever. If you can gather the rest of the staff. I suppose we must find if anyone else is running fever. They might be hiding it like...like the councilbeing did." he gives a soft little sigh. Shaking his head, "no food or drink for me please..." he looks over to the councilbeing, "Has he been given anything for the fever? Willowbark? Peppermint?" he asks the Greyhound before she bustles off. He steps into the room and he blinks, seeing Selena, giving a cough he bows his head and adjusts his mask, "I've become somthing of a healer..." he holds up a fresh strip. "I have made a quick fever detector. Good way of sorting through sick I think." he looks at the council member and gets close. Exmanining him, this is the first plauge victim he's seen after all, and he will examine over his features, looking for anything...odd. He looks over at Mirana and nods, "I think Selena is also taking notes..." he offers MIran and nods at Cythim as she unpacks. "When the Being comes back with tea, please infuse it with some peppermint. We will see if he can drink anything..."
