The chapter opens with the Tower Master offering Andrias a bet where he must create a new medicine to clear his family's debt and gain a wish, otherwise he's expelled. After accepting the challenge, Andrias and Lucia participate in a potion exam under the Tower Master's watchful eye. Andrias astounds everyone with his potion, displaying high-level knowledge, which is followed by an inquisition about the potion's composition and process.
