Well, that was a relief, then...assuming he was telling the truth. If other potions or ingredients had been added to the equation, there was no way of telling what the antidote would do. If he was lying, he'd just have to pay the consequences. After a second of suspicious silence, Urd looked back down to her work, crushing the ingredients with the pestle.
"Ingredients for potions and medicines," she replied, not expecting him to understand that much either. "Now be quiet for a second, I have to concentrate." She reached over and opened a large jar of dark blue liquid. Dipping a long, thin glass tube into the jar, she took it out again and quickly held it over the mortar, adding precise measurements of the liquid to the mix. When that was done, she mixed it up a bit more before holding a hand over it.
Urd closed her eyes and murmured something too quiet to be heard even with Timon's animal hearing. What was in the mortar seemed to explode with a puff of foul-smelling smoke. "There!" she said triumphantly, withdrawing a small, dark brown oval-shaped pill from the bowl. She held it up to the light, smiling with satisfaction. "I really am amazing."
She suddenly looked back down at Timon with a scowl, all trace of a smile vanished. "You're lucky I could come up with this so quickly. Most antidotes take much longer than this." She walked back over to the meerkat and knelt, holding out the pill in the palm of her hand.
"It's not going to taste all that great, but there's no helping it." Actually, there was, but she wasn't just going to let him off the hook that easily. She held out her other hand, in which an appropriately sized glass of water had somehow materialized.
"Choke it down with the water and the new fur that grew should fall out in a minute or so, leaving you the way you were before you decided not to listen to me."
