Thus, this Thursday passed in quite peaceful hours. The only notable event before dusk was a visit from someone entrusting Shard to find a lost pet cat. This was a task Shard excelled at, and he resolved it while out for lunch with Mia.
This year, the commission tasks he encountered were pathetically few. In retrospect, it was probably related to Dorothy's excessive praise of him in her novel. After all, the fees of a famous detective were quite expensive.
After Luviya finished work at the Prophet's Society, she came over to Shard's place to continue her stargazing, just like previous days. She was very economical with her time, so Shard brought back takeout to share with Luviya, naturally discussing his time travel experience that morning over dinner:
"I found that witches of the Fifth Era were very proactive, utterly different from those we know."
