"Karkstan?"
That name made Lann repeat it with a hint of surprise and put the spoon back into the soup bowl.
"Are you talking about... Karkstan of Vizima?"
Triss next to Lann also seemed a bit surprised, considering she had been serving as Temeria's royal advisor in Vizima, she might be quite familiar with him.
"Exactly that person." Dandelion responded confidently and smugly.
"I am quite good at remembering those tongue-twisting and lengthy names, drastically different from ordinary poets who stumble over announcing before performances. Adalbert Aloysius Karkstan."
"This alchemist's full name just fits my memory cue."
"He is indeed a powerful alchemist."
Lann no longer doubted it and acknowledged Dandelion's previous assessment.
This alchemist named Karkstan is not only famous locally in Vizima, but even his published works are seen in Airetusa's classrooms.
Master Alchemist, chemist, scientist, diviner, runemaster, warlock...
Truly a genius.
