"As you wish, but the medicine is bitter. So I brought you something to follow it."
The biscuits were dry, but they were at least easy to swallow and something of a treat after... Well, the rest of it. It would be easier if he were a child, and she could bribe him like that. "But yes, Newalker. The family was appointed to power as part of negations between the United India Company and the Marathi Empire. To a man called Shivra Bhau." She gets the medicine and - they'd said a lot of words to her about what was in it that she didn't understand, true enough.
She waits for him to sit up for it though, and doesn't force him or lean to help him up. She doubted he would appreciate it, if she did. Just patiently sitting there to see what he would do, if he resisted the medicine too.
