Matthew paused briefly before responding, "You don't need to come over. I can transfer the money directly." Elliott grew more enthusiastic, saying, "Since you've helped me, I must bring a gift and thank you in person." Matthew replied somewhat resignedly, "As you wish."

While enjoying the rare tranquility, Matthew began to ponder how to find Medieval Medicine.
