Stinging Lullaby

I respect Agent Gillian as our leader, just like anyone in this outpost. Her procedures are methodical and strike a fair balance between the security of her task force and the success of the mission. She is not afraid to take actions in her own hands, a fear reminiscent of my people on Kalimdor. She advised us to take advantage of Balor's unique environment and circumstances, an order I am more than happy to oblige with. When I scoured the island earlier, I bore witness to a fascinating scene. One of the fiendish orcs sought skirmish with the local arachnid population to the north. She fell victim to a bite, rapidly followed by sudden lethargy until she became easy prey. These spiders must possess a very potent venom with narcotic and paralyzing properties. Should we extract it, it could provide ample uses for our campaign on Balor. Bring me their venom sacs and thin out their numbers while you do so. They may be useful to us, but remain a hazard nonetheless.

You may think a medic indulging in poison distillation is uncommon, but this is a required expertise in the SI:7, regardless of designation. My knowledge over the body and anatomy in particular gives me certain insights others may lack.

An unusally biting odor. Extracting a functioning poison from them might take some time, but the result will be worth the effort tenfold. I must thank you, your assistance accelerates the success of this mission more than you'd think.
