Preparations for the trip to London

Author's note: this is from Seraphina's point of view

Krob didn't linger much. He said that he needs to tend to some plants in the garden and he blended with the shadows, leaving me and Aldus behind.

I had a feeling that gardening was an excuse and I wondered if Aldus sent a mental message to Krob to leave because we were chatting instead of working.

For most of the afternoon, Aldus was introducing me to the official products of the Notte Pharmaceuticals while explaining how they differ from what he is creating with alchemic ways.

I was familiar with most of the original formulas, and that made it easy to understand what Notte Pharmaceuticals is making and how it became a staple in the world of medicine and beauty products. No wonder Aldus is filthy rich. Notte Pharmaceuticals has also products that are in the category of electronic equipment used in laboratories, but those facilities are in Germany.
