If asked for her intentions with keeping the rest of the blood donation, Araj will attribute it to mere curiosity. With a {{Ability check|History|14}}, knowledge of {{FRWiki|House Oblodra}} will allow the party to realise that Araj doesn't want True Soul blood, but [[Illithid]] blood specifically – an illicit subject for a drow to research.

After following Araj into her bombed-out shop, she'll breathlessly encourage the character to finish the research, and drink her new formula: Formula Gruna.

In parting, and with no qualms at having so risked the character's life, she'll offer to provide another explosive in exchange for a nominal fee: another blood donation. | When spoken to next, Araj will be pleased to see they did not die, and excited at the results.
