His trust in his guildmaster was well-placed, it seemed. While chaos reigned over in spiderland, Edmund was eventually able to scorch the creepy little voidweaver out of existence so things could settle down once more.
Tal was just glad that their own void-touched critter hadn't busted out, and he huffed a reluctant nod at Sah. "Not bad, Jester," he grinned at his frenemy, a wicked gleam in his eyes. "Looks like y've finally learned some tips about buildin' after watchin' me all these years. Learnin' slow's better'n not at all!"
He finished the last of his notes and then went to join the rest as Maea called them over, leaving both Tangleweeds to the guards. When she asked for reports he scowled down at the notebook in his hands and chewed his lip fiercely before deciding he'd rather get the public speaking over with sooner rather than later.
"Yeah, so, uh... Tangleweeds. Th'normal one was scared shitless - uh, twig... less? - of t'other one. It kept tryin' t'get as far away as it could. Like it knew somethin' was wrong with it. We kept 'em separated, though, an' th'void stuff never infected it that I could see. So it looks like it doesn't spread from just sharin' th'same air or bein' close," he reported, reaching up to rub fiercely at the back of his neck while he spoke, and keeping his eyes firmly glued down at his notebook. "He saw more o' th'voidweed while he was reinforcin' its pen," the courier added, ceding the floor to Sah to let the Wild Thunder finish their report.
Tal reports that the normal Tangleweed tried to get away from the infected one, but didn't seem to catch the void infection just by being near it/from the air around it. Then he punts the report on the infected Tangleweed over to Sah!
