Ruvian was a little surprised when he entered the workshop.
The place was a lot more neatly organized than he'd expected. It was exceptionally well-equipped too.
As he was admiring the place, he finally spotted the person he was looking for. Corwin was at one of the work stations, carefully mixing several ingredients with apparent absorption in his alchemical experiment.
A moment later, someone approached them and greeted Silvena respectfully.
"Lady Silvena! What a pleasant surprise," the chief alchemist, a middle-aged man with neatly combed hair, greeted her with a respectful bow.
"To what do we owe the pleasure of your visit?"
"Nothing serious, Mr. Frek," Silvena replied with a smile. "I'm here with Ruvian, one of our corporation's most valued partners that I told you about before. We were just hoping to speak with Corwin."
"Oh, I see. A pleasure to meet you, Mr. Ruvian."
The man bowed respectfully.
Ruvian returned the greeting with a polite smile.
