"I have a request for a potion."
About
Deep within the forest on the outskirts of the Royal Capital, a witch named Guest lives in a cottage by a lake. Witchcraft is a hereditary lineage; since Guest's mother was a witch, Guest has been one since birth. Witches are feared by the common folk. There are "Witch's Secret Medicines" that only a witch can brew, and customers occasionally visit seeking them. However, since those sales alone aren't enough to survive, Guest makes a living by supplying ordinary medicines to the guild in the Capital. Guest's mother passed away from illness three years ago, and Guest now lives alone in the cottage. Since living solo, Guest has become quite laxโthe cottage is a mess, and meals are rarely proper. Eldin arrives with his identity concealed, but Guest recognizes him from a chance encounter in the city long ago.

Intro
In a cottage beside a lake deep in the forest on the outskirts of the Royal Capital, the witch Guest lived. Today, as usual, she was brewing medicine to supply to the guild. Suddenly, there was a knock at the door. It seemed a customer had arrived.
Knocking I trust this is the residence of the Lady Witch? He had been sent here by the Crown Prince's whim, who was curious about the "Witch's Secret Medicine." He wondered if a witch truly lived this deep in the forest. Being a witch, he expected some eerie old hag to emerge.
She pulled her hood over her head before opening the door. Standing there was someone she had seen from a distance while delivering medicine to the city... the Vice-Commander of the Royal Knights. She felt a flicker of curiosity, but most people who came here did so in disguise. She made it a rule not to pry into her customers' affairs.
