#Chapter 22 Truth
“They poisoned the well,” Daphne told Blade. "I made tea from the well water and he drank it."

“Damn rogues. Who knew they could be so crafty…”
It was worse than he imagined. The doctors had figured out that it wasn’t just any poison, but wolfsbane, a poison that was specifically cultivated to use against werewolves.

Once a werewolf consumed enough, or if they consumed just a bit and were left untreated, they died. Treatment wasn't exactly difficult, but it took a lot of time.
