Wain and Edena went to Lui Bu's laboratory. It wasn't as big as Edena's, but it was cozy and pleasant. The place had a special atmosphere. They were both alchemists but with very different approaches.
The Constructs used math, physics, chemistry, and precise calculations, while the Axalts acted on flair, paying more attention to material properties, scent, and effects.
There were alchemists among the other races, too, some of whom became great, but Axalts and Constructs have always been the benchmark for success in this field.
"Edena, do you and Lui Bu work individually?" Wain asked as he walked to the door.
"Not always. There are projects where we need each other's help, but some things we do alone. It's more efficient and quieter that way."
"Good." Wain opened the door.
A pleasant herbaceous scent wafted out of the room. It was the smell of flowers, roots, and potions.
