"Ummm… like how I'm a noble? Or maybe like how there is the emperor?" She responded, and seeing how her reaction was genuine, I couldn't help but likely chuckle. "What's wrong? Did I do something funny?"
"No, no, no," I laughed, shaking my head side to side before narrowly catching my breath. "Shit… there is so much more to learn about this world."
The woman stared at me yet again, but this time her eyes scanned me from top to bottom.
"What? Do you know magic or something? Do you know an ancient technique that is better than mine?"
"No, of course not. You're the master at medicine," I smiled back, and as the woman scoffed ever so slightly, I shifted my eyes over to the vial of purple and black medicine.
My eyes were practically glued to it, its mystical properties latching onto my pupils and holding me there. Staring at it. Unable to look away. I tried. But I couldn't.
