The Witch's potion was truly miraculous.
As early as the day after the administrations began, the patients began to heal one after the other, regaining their strength within a few hours.
Finally, hope had returned to Basterwick too, and within a few days the plague could be said to be completely eradicated.
Daemon tried not to give privileges, but no one blamed him when he asked that Scalia be among the first to be cured; on the other hand, it was thanks to him that it had been possible to save so many lives.
"You feel better?" he asked when one morning he saw her walk into his office at City Hall fresh as a daisy.
