After breakfast, everyone dispersed according to their plans.
Zoe, Luca, and Ash took the Mercedes AMG GT and headed to town for the day. I didn't ask about the details, but they were in a good mood and that was all it mattered.
Tessa followed Maria on their next round of whatever they were doing for Tessa to take over Maria's previous duties in the villa management.
Vito went to meet with Fynn and Bert and discuss people's fighting capabilities in order to distribute manpower for patrols.
Duke went to the study to deal with Eclipse-related matters, and he said he would check on me when he was done.
With everyone finding something to do and me assuring nothing urgent was pending at Notte Pharmaceuticals, I felt less guilty about secluding myself in the basement where my alchemic lab is.
