Doctor Bundt was surprised to hear that Rein had an aunt who was a witch and a talented one at that.
She knew how to concoct blood alternates which even Treegan spoke highly of.
The pills that entered the Royal Palace were always expected to be of the highest quality.
Therefore, Treegan would have only consumed the best of the best that were sold in Valanthur.
So if even he had high praises for the ones made by Rein's aunt then it was easy to deduce just how exquisite they could have been.
Blood alternates were either made by witches or talented physicians, but in rare instances, they could be prepared by apothecaries as well.
However, most apothecaries preferred to focus their attention on creating and studying different kinds of potions and poisons so there wasn't much time left for anything else.
Especially since potions and poisons fetched them greater sums of money than what blood alternates could.
