Commission
Herbalist's Guild, Uptown Quarter.
In the seating area on the first floor of the building, Adam sat on a leather couch and scribbled down notes in his grimoire.
This area had comfortable seating arrangements for customers and Herbalists alike. There were bookshelves filled with volumes of botany, herbal medicine, and other general knowledge.
It was a nice spot for guild members to read, study, or discuss academia.
Adam's eyes flashed with fascination as he wrote about the key findings in the memories of the expert that he had just recently absorbed.
More specifically, he was writing about shadow magic.
Shadow magic was very rare and its nature and philosophy were more often than not greatly misunderstood.
Most people felt that its dark powers meant that it was inherently evil, or at the very least intimately connected to evil.
