Ludolf stifles another chuckle as he reads the surface thoughts of the poor bewigged dwarf. "Well you have a guest under the name of Jarlaxle that certainly behaves like he thinks it is." Ludolf gruffly responds to Seth.
As Seth walks away so does Ludolf again excusing himself for a while, going to his room if necessary to cast Detect Magic as a ritual, not nearly as beautifully as Triäsa but nonetheless effective, making mystical signs and uttering weird words in Deep Speech to complete the spell. He then returns to study the room, especially the servants and the food and drink they bring to the table.
(OOC: Sorry, changed to reading the elf's mind earlier but nevermind. :-)
The food and drink shows no aura of magic. Just as Triäsa noted you get the glow illusion magic on the servants.
Your meals having arrived you start eating, because that's start people do. It's been a long day and outside of Pardot and his berry infused mojito none of you have eaten in a very long time. The food tastes good, not great but it is good. There is a somewhat odd bitter taste in the dressing and chicken glaze you can't quite place.

"Ah, yes the drow. He is not much of an actor but it is impressive you saw through his charade. He comes here every few months to try and woo a naive maiden or five. Sad really." Seth looks as you all eat. "Now take your time with the meals. They might make you feel... funny... it is just the impurities leaving your body as the food cleanses your system." He then leaves and heads back to the bar where he starts cleaning apparently closing down for the evening.

All of you feel a wave nausea run through your system and a cold sweat beads up on your brow. But just as quickly as it came on it passes and you all feel just fine.
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
Feeling the uncomfortable nausea retreating, Triäsa addresses Seth, "You could have told us that would happen. Just what 'impurities' have you taken? Perhaps we disagree on what ought to be removed." She waves her hands with a few quick rhymed arcane phrases, using Prestidigitation to create a shower of golden-colored sparks to fall down upon her.
(OOC: She is concerned this may have been some trick to affect magical abilities or impart an illusion. The spell was something easy to cast as a test. Arcana to see if she notes anything that changed: 18)
With a hurt look Seth looks at Triäsa, "But my dear I did just tell you. The food is designed to help move waste and impurities through your stomach. To clean the build up of toxins from your bowels. Some react a bit more vigorously to it that others. It seems like you and your friends are made of heartier stuff!" (Faerun colon cleanse! I bet no one has written about that before! May this be my legacy)
Your magic goes of dramatically and completely normally. The couple by the fire clap enthusiastically while the elf turns and gives a half smile.

Ludolf starts coughing as if having trouble with what he just ate, walking out of sight briefly, casting another Detect Thoughts, the returning. "I'm glad I'm not around to see the effects on those that don't react as vigorously to this meal as we did."He mutters, turning to Seth again. "So what exactly is the effects of this food did you say, and what would be the effects for those weaker than present company? I didn't quite hear what you said before." He says, then scanning Seth's mind again as he answers. Ludolf would now also use the opportunity to scan the mind of the elf and anyone else he might have missed.
"Ahem," Seth awkwardly clears his throat, "well I don't want to be vulgar, particularly in front of the ladies but it loosens the bowels moves things along.... rapidly... and repeatedly.... lasts about day then you feel like a new person. Important to stay hydrated while you arr going through it though." He thinks for a moment, "I have a concentrated bit of the serum in the back if you are interested. Another dose would certainly do the trick."
When you leave and return with your mind open you the following thoughts echoing in your brain.
Seth -- The things I do around here for those women... it would be different if I were in charge... I just need to out figure the magic of the paintings... patience Seth patience...
The elf -- Simple magic but power none the less. I bet there is more to her and perhaps the others. Yes this could be the opportunity I have been waiting for... the old man seems to have a weak bladder though keeps getting up... doubt he is very useful...

"I agree Ludolf, it probably is not good to leave Fistandia alone for so long. And we should see she gets the medicine. And that food stuff." Triäsa starts to stand, glancing over at Daventry. "I believe you had grabbed everything before you left?"
You stand and make your way to the door back to the dorms. Seth gives you a hearty wave as you leave. Returning to Fistandia's room you find her just as you left her. She is resting comfortably and well cared for.
The five of you stand around Fistandia's bed plotting your next move.

"Yes, thank you Seth, I think we have had quite enough of vulgarity already." Ludolf says as the halfling finishes.
"We should perhaps go and see to Fistandia, all of us." He suggests to the others as Seth leaves them.
As the rumble in his tummy settles down, Pardot nods in agreement and says, "Though I have heard of detoxing, usually it isn't quite so... sudden."

Ludolf nods and quickly gets up to pull out Triäsa's chair, then ready to head back to Fistandia's room.
Daventry nods. "Yeah, I've got it. Let's go see to her before... Ugh... Surprise laxatives."
