Matthew considered for a moment before speaking. "Gather these three medicinal herbs: Wild Indigo, Crescentleaf, and Green Chiretta. You can start tomorrow. I can't give you a precise amount I'll need—it depends on how long each of you has had the brand. For someone like you, Mr. Mack, we'll need at least two stalks to start."
Mack nodded seriously, then stood up and called out to the crowd, his booming voice echoing across the dock. "Listen up, everyone! I've got some great news!"
His shout immediately caught the attention of the other dockworkers.
"What's the big news, Chief?"
"Look, he's practically glowing with excitement!"
"Have you just found yourself a wife, Chief?"
The men laughed as they tore into their food, tossing out their guesses.
"Get your heads out of the gutter! You bunch of fools are the reason I'm still single!"
"Yeah, right!"
"What's that got to do with us? Don't shift the blame!"
"You're the last one who should be lecturing us about behavior!"
"Quiet down, all of you!" Mack bellowed. "Matteo here just told me he can remove the brands from your skin. Now, isn't that some good news?"
Mack's announcement plunged the dock into stunned silence. The men stood there, speechless, staring at Mack.
After a long pause, one of them spoke up. "Chief, are you serious?"
Mack nodded firmly, his voice steady. "Matteo wouldn't lie to you. Starting tomorrow, we'll focus on gathering three herbs: Wild Indigo, Crescentleaf, and Green Chiretta. Got it?"
Stumbling onto the dock, Emil called out loudly, "Chief Deadeye, are you in? I, Emil Kaiser, request an audience!"
As his voice echoed, lights flickered on across the previously dark dock, accompanied by angry shouts from the dock's guards.
"Who's making a racket this late? I'm gonna kill him!"
"Demanding to see the chief right away? Where's my axe? I'll chop him down!"
"Does he think he can just waltz in here like it's his backyard?"
The air filled with curses, each voice tinged with cold menace.
One by one, burly men emerged from the shadows, shirtless and armed with various weapons—axes, machetes, hammers, and more.
