[PQ] A scientific approach

Life is either a daring adventure or nothing.

Edmund and Sah's disapproving statements ran over each other in a unified stance of disagreement. In addition to Ellyra's physical transformation and Maea's orders, everyone's unanimous decision is obvious. That fact is only mildly surprising. Although she'd anticipated some resistance, didn't they want to learn what they could? With a huff of annoyance, Thal stood, shooting everyone an accusing glare. "If we are going to learn everything about the Void, we will eventually need to know what ingesting it does. Could it be used as a poison? What would the symptoms be if the water sources became infected? Is it permanent or not? Would you rather find that out by accident without knowing the cause, or let a willing person offer to show you?" They needed to consider everything. This wasn't just a fun science experiment; this was a strategic assessment of the capabilities of their enemies.

But knowing that their minds won't be changed, she found her notebook and settled to watch them work, prepared to take notes on the Tangleweeds as ordered instructed.
