Sylvia wasn't the next person to enter the alchemy store, however.  Instead, a young priestess Mareth recognized as Alicia entered.  Mareth had learned that Alicia was new to the temple, and did not have the magical talent most of her seniors possessed.  Still, they said she had potential, and with the training she was receiving, she was certain to become a very powerful cleric.  Despite her rigorous training, it seemed she had plenty of time to keep herself well groomed, her red hair flowing perfectly halfway down her back, framing her pale face.  Her body had filled out nicely, her breasts and hips large enough to be pleasing to most of the men in town, though the priestess's robes she wore almost seemed to be made to conceal her figure.<br/><br/>"Hello, Mareth," she said cheerfully as she entered the shop.  "Cardinal Koth said that the ritual ointment should be ready by now."
