They walked down a hallway. "I am sure cardamine is widely studied but only a fool reveals that they are doing it. I mean, think about it. Can you imagine the price on one's head for doing that by the Outcasts? While so many choose to find a way to reverse the drug itself, I study how to help those who want to break the grip of its dependency."
They entered a room with scanning equipment. "This equipment will give deep scans of you. It will give me a better baseline of you than what my hand scanner gives and it goes right through your clothing."

One thing I never get to study is someone going through withdrawal....severe withdrawal....to maybe find an answer. I know you suffered greatly in a prison cell but I promise you this, I will not let you die and will do what I can to keep you comfortable. I can even assign a nurse to stay with you."
He then layed her on the scan table. It was like a CAT scanner but deeper. "Please, give that some thought while we do this. It may unlock answers."
He then turned on the scanner and began taking readings.
