"Weren't you the healer who helped Prince Arzhen Vasiliev regain his consciousness?"
Ah. So that was it. A reputation check. She had heard his name attached to the prince's recovery and was confirming the source. Reasonable. Expected, even.
"Thank you for your service," Ruby added, her tone warm.
Roarke did not immediately seize the credit. He nodded calmly, slow and casual.
"We are fortunate that the Prince originally had a great constitution." He said humbly. "He is a very resilient person. I barely did anything."
"You are right!" Ruby chuckled. "But it is not true that you barely did anything. I heard your medicine is very effective."
She paused and tilted her head.
"It reminded me of the recently spread miracle elixir of Lady Sees. The Dragon's Physician."
