Salateen’s Wakefulness Injection

A slender metal syringe with a fine needle, held by Salateen to jolt Peri from her drugged stupor. The plunger depresses with precise pressure, sending a transparent liquid into Peri’s vein. Its abrupt action forces consciousness back into her at Chellak’s quarters, the first strike in Salateen’s campaign to reclaim dominance over Peri before Sharaz Jek’s influence can fully take hold.
