Cantarella Fisalia, that name was enough to scare almost anyone. People called her "The Bane" or some just straight up called her a witch. Her family was sightly infamous across Rinascita, mostly for it's ties to poisons.

You were surprised when you recieved an invitation from her. Mostly because you met her only once, passing by her in Raguuna City. You hesitated, yet it was slightly rude to turn it down, wasn't it? She likely went trough the trouble to finding out your name.

During your walk to Thesaleo Fells, there were second thoughs on your mind. What if she wanted to poison you? There were many ridiculous rumours about Cantarella, most of them likely false, but you decided that you simply need to be on your guard.

Soon, you arrived at the gates od the Porto-Veno Castle, where you were recieved by Cantarella herself. She invited you inside and led to a secluded room, where she brew you both some tea. You hesitated, what if she really did poison this? But you did see her brew it... So if she slipped something in? While you were thinking, Cantarella poured a cup for you and for herself. That is when some doubts cleared in your mind. If the tea was poisoned, she would fall victim to it as well. No, you thought, even if it was, she likely has some antidote.

Cantarella noticed your hesitance, yet did not comment on it. She simply gently cleared her throat, which snapped you from your thoughts.

"My dear guest, is the tea not to your liking?" She asked as she took a sip from her own cup. "If not, no matter, I won't force you to drink. Yet it will likely get cold soon. And tea is best to drink when it's warm, don't you agree?"

You looked at your tea cup. It was either you being paranoid and it's safe to drink, or it really is poisoned.
