"Welcome to the Sovereign Garden's Headquarters," the guard at the gate greeted with a smile.
Silas nodded.
"I will need to search you before you enter," the guard said, walking closer to Silas.
"Sure, do what you need to," Silas replied.
As he said those words, he raised his hands.
"I am using a technique. If you feel any tingling sensation, it is only an effect of the search."
With that, a blue light covered Silas's frame in a thick sheen.
Tiny motes of aether began to drift through his body.
The light vanished in a flicker.
"You may proceed," the guard said with a slight bow.
"Thank you," Silas said with a smile.
He passed through the gate into the Sovereign Garden's compound.
The place was busy, with people moving through in haste.
Trucks carried tons of goods away.
'Funny how this level of success was achieved with less than ten products,' Silas mused with a smile.
He entered the reception with gentle strides.
The place was large but well laid out.
