Tonight, Thalassa caught Lydia's surprised gaze with a knowing smile. “Lydia, I've got something to discuss with you.” “You cback in the middle of the night to talk? This must be something big,” Lydia said with wide-eyed curiosity as she ushered her friend inside.

“It’s not simple, that’s for sure. But hearout!” Thalassa took a sip of water, clearing her throat before she continued, “You've heard of Dr. Samuel Funke, haven't you? He's a renowned physician, known far and wide for his expertise in acupuncture and Western surgical techniques. He's looking to take on an apprentice in traditional medicine, and I've recommended you.” “What? You think | can learn medicine? | don’t know the first thing about it,” Lydia said, overwhelmed by the sudden leap.
“You're quick-witted, Lydia. Of course you can handle it. Besides, your grandma’s been bedridden since her fall.
Imagine if a master acupuncturist could treat her, she might just get back on her feet. And if Dr. Funke won't chimself, once you've learned, you can treat her yourself. Wouldn't that be something wonderful?” Thalassa tried to persuade her.
“Alright, I'm in!” Lydia said, slapping her thigh decisively.
Thalassa had hit hwith a single point: if Lydia could master the art of acupuncture, 1/2 08:41 2/2 Chapter 1443 she might heal her grandmother and restore her mobility.

“Great, pack your bags, then. We're heading to Starhaven now,” Thalassa said.
“Now? So sudden?” Lydia was taken aback.
“I have to introduce you to Dr. Funke tomorrow morning. If we don’t leave tonight, we'll miss the perfect tat eight o'clock,” Thalassa explained.
She had looked it up. In the world of traditional medicine, apprenticeships often began with a ceremony at eight in the morning. Missing that felt like a bad omen.
When it cto following tradition, Thalassa was not one to break the rules.
“Okay, letjust grab a few things.” Lydia was all efficiency, packing her suitcase in under two minutes with her clothes folded neatly.
As they stepped out of the house, Thalassa’s phone rang.
It was Alaric. “Mr. Falconer, what a surprise to hear from you.” “Have you and Hertha made it back? I've been trying to dial Hertha’s number, and there’s no answer,” Alaric’s voice was laced with concern.
