On afternoon times, when the sun is high above the head, in front of the Alchemist Association's branch store in Oakheart.
Lark, a half-elf and the branch manager of this shop, had a tense expression on his face as he waited for someone to come; his uncle, Aethoniel Eryndor.
Lark had already received the letter stating that his uncle would come directly to Oakheart to solve the problem. If it was his uncle, Lark was already prepared for any possibility that might occur.
As Lark was lost in thought, he suddenly caught sight of Nikos and his group walking towards him from the end of the street.
"Nice to meet you, Branch Manager Mr. Lark," Nikos said with a smile, greeting Lark politely.
