Threadneedle Lane
5 books18+Healer Shopkeeper LitRPG
The Verolan Cleric's Guild charges a monthly tithe and waits six weeks before audience. The Compounder's Charter forbids apothecaries from diagnosing. Sera Wexton holds neither license — she was expelled from the Guild at thirteen for diagnosing a senior cleric's hidden curse during evening service, and she has been running her grandmother's apothecary on Threadneedle Lane the wrong way ever since. Diagnose live. Compound on the spot. Casebook entries in black ink for correct, red for wrong, grey for outcomes she never learns. Five books. Fifteen cases per book. One Cleric Guild monopoly that takes five volumes to break.
