Hurrying back into the teahouse, Ffion is relieved to see the tall figure at the back.
"Oh, Mabon, I didn't see you arrive. Could you get a tea for the customer outside please. He's a foreigner, so don't forget all the extras. He might even want milk in it. I need to talk to Ellis."
She hurries through to the kitchen without waiting for Mabon's acknowledgement. Ellis is carefully pouring molten chocolate over the pastries, making intricate patterns.
"Ellis!" He flinches and puts the bowl down. "There's a customer outside and you need to talk to him!"
"What? Why?"
"He's here for the convocation! You can ask him about the test!"
