An offer to the Travelers
Hello, fellow Travelers. For once, I am not addressing everyone in regards to an entertainment of some sort.
Gentlemen, and those without a female reproductive system, you might want to tune me out from here on. Ladies, and anyone with a female reproductive system, I have something for you.
A few Liminal Spaces back, I realized that no one here has made any sort of contraceptives for those who might wish to engage in activities that would result in unfortunate consequences.
[For all that she adored Christina eventually... it was an unfortunate consequence.]
I have made a liquid that will halt conception for three months. It is completely reversible if you ever wish to bear a child, but it will prevent both pregnancy and menstruation.
For those who live in an earlier age and do not understand, I am happy to talk you through what goes on, and what my concoction does.
If you would like some, please, by all means, come to my rooms. My door is always open, and I will not ask any questions of you.

I have heard only flashes on the network about this subject, and only a little more about this from a dear friend back home. Even if I am not a human woman... is there knowledge I should know about such things? Is there things I can do to ease the experience?
[Look, Drizzt is a little concerned about this whole bleeding and pain and cramping thing. And more concerned that he doesn't know anything about it. What if something goes wrong! Can something go wrong? He really doesn't know! But he can't just go around ignoring suffering if it's around him or something. LOOK HE HAS NO IDEA. N O N E. Wait. Should he be asking this? Is it wrong to ask?]
U-Unless it is imprudent and rude to ask such a thing, of course.
no subject
Unfortunately, however, there is very little that one can do to alleviate the symptoms of menstruation other than an entire stoppage of it entirely. There are pain relievers that can help with pain and cramping, and some put either cold or warm temperatures on the affected area.
no subject
The world would be a better place if more men did, I suspect.
... An injury that is not an injury, then. No wonder why women wish to avoid it. How painful can it be?
no subject
Extremely painful. I have known ladies who have been bed-bound once a month due to their menstruation. It is a struggle that many times seems quite unnecessary.
no subject
How horrible--Bed-bound? [Horror, not being incredulous.] I knew only little about it at home, being drow, and what little I knew was from a dear friend of mine.
[Maybe drow women are similar, but they would simply not consider it a man's place to know, being considered the "inferior" sex in drow society.]
