742.04.03 | Poisonous Baths - Random Event - 06.Apr.21
On the morning of 03.04.742 a horrific attack occurred in Ista Weyr. Goldrider Siftay was found in her bath, deceased. It appeared as though the water had been filled with an acid of some sort. Jr. Weyrwoman Ojassa and Weyrleader J'zaq were found in their bathrooms after the discovery, alive, but unconscious on the floor from fumes emanating from their bathwater which seemed to have been tainted in the same way.
Weyrwoman Casa was offering some individual tutoring to Candidate Zelana when they discovered their drinks had been poisoned. Both are in the infirmary at present, in stable condition thanks to quick acting on the Weyrwoman's part to try and counteract the poison and Thallyath's swift summoning of the Healers. It is unclear if this incident is related to the tainted bath water.
One witness, Brownrider K'tir, reported seeing a masked individual leaving the Weyrwoman's quarters, but a powder was thrown into his face, burning his eyes, nose, and mouth, and rendering him blind. It is uncertain whether he will recover or not.
Bluerider F'vin from Fort is sought for questioning, since he was reported by the watch dragon as leaving the Weyr shortly after the incident involving K'tir was reported.
*Survivors of the acid bath fumes will find that they suffer from the following symptoms for at least a month: blurred vision, dizziness, vertigo, shortness of breath, coughing, burning sensation in the lungs, nose, throat, mouth, and eyes. Blurred vision may last longer or be permanent.
Casa and Zelana will have digestion troubles for a couple weeks.
K'tir has been permanently blinded.
