"Mr. Alexander, you're back," Amelia said softly as Alexander walked through the door.
"Alexander, you're living quite the life, even got yourself a maid..." Troy chuckled.
"His name is Troy, an old friend of mine," Alexander introduced to the bewildered Amelia.
"Mr. Troy, hello," Amelia said, bowing her head slightly in greeting.
"Hello," Troy replied with a smile, his eyes scrutinizing her.
Amelia felt shy and didn't dare to look up.
"We're heading to Lysander City tomorrow. It might take a few days," Alexander said.
"Understood," Amelia replied, wanting to ask if she could go along but refrained since Alexander hadn't mentioned it.
Late at night, Alexander thought for a moment and contacted Jace.
"Do you know anything about Lysander City?" Alexander asked.
"I'm actually heading to Lysander City tomorrow for the Alchemy Conference," Jace replied.
"Alchemy Conference?" Alexander asked, puzzled.
