Acquiring a membership at the Herbalist's Guild was a rigorous process, to say the least.
The guild held its members to high standards, making it so that only the best of the best Herbalists were given membership.
Firstly, the prospective Herbalist had to submit an application detailing their background, experience, and reasons for seeking membership at the guild.
Then, the guild's council would review the application. They were invited to take the examination only if the candidate met the basic requirements.
However, Adam was able to skip this tedious process by outshining the guild's brightest genius.
For that, he was quite thankful for Barclay actually. If he had gone the normal route, it would have taken him weeks, if not months, to even partake in the examination.
Halbert climbed the stairs to the second floor. Behind him, Adam respectfully followed along with Barclay and a few other Herbalists who happened to be downstairs.
