Thermos of Tea

A metallic thermos containing steaming black tea, found near the corpse on Fendelman's lab table. Its exterior shows slight condensation in the warm lab air, and Stael sets it aside without marking it for disposal—despite the body's rapid decomposition. The contradiction between the ordinary warmth of the drink and the lifeless decay before them underscores their shared tension as they enforce silence.
