Murano Kobos glasses are not only beautiful, but they are also strong enough not to break easily when dropped. This strength is created by a processing method developed by Master Murano. A long, thin pen would be a bit more fragile, but we can make it much stronger than if it was made from ordinary glass. (Rev)

Do you know how to process it? (Ekaterina)

Yes, I inherited it from my master. I made this glass myself. (Rev)

Hearing these words, Ekaterina looked at the glass carefully again.

Ekaterinas POV

I dont know how to evaluate a glass, but the shape is perfect, the thickness is even, the red color is vivid, and there is no unevenness in the color. If he was entrusted with such a glass made of expensive materials, Rev would have been evaluated greatly by his master.

I dont know much about glass, but its beautiful. I think you did a wonderful job. (Ekaterina)

Thank you, my Lady. Master Muranos work was far more impressive, but he also recognized that my work could be produced and proudly carry the name of Murano Studio. (Rev)

Oh, so youre saying that it was created by Master Murano, but the whole workshop was producing it. I suppose thats normal. By the way, I heard that in my previous life, there was a time when the paintings that were believed to be the works of the painter Rembrandt were found to be the works of Rembrandts workshop. Many of them were his disciples paintings, and the paintings in various museums were reappraised to see if they were his own.

I heard that many museums were disappointed to find out that the paintings were those of his pupils, but I thought that Rembrandt must have been a great artist to have trained so many pupils who could paint as well as he did.

When I was thinking about it, Rev said with a serious face.

But theres a problem. (Rev)

3rd POV

Well, what is it? (Ekaterina)

This strength can only be achieved here in the Murano workshop. We cant make it without a fire in that furnace, which is full of the masters ingenuity. (Rev)

Eh.

This workshop is now up for sale. My master had debts. My master was a great craftsman, but he wasnt good at business. There were times when he was cheated. So, as soon as my master passed away, they took away our workshop. (Rev)

With a thoughtful expression, Rev looked at Ekaterina.

But I want to work here. I want to make things here that can only be made here. Thats why Im begging you, Miss. Please buy this workshop! (Rev)

!?

Rev bows his head deeply.

Ill make glass pens, glasses, or whatever you want, Young Lady. I will never let you lose money. The name of the Murano workshop has not been forgotten yet, and Im sure that the products made with my skills, which were trained by my master, will fetch a good price Well, Ive never done business before, but Ill do my best. My salary can be much lower. So, please help me keep this workshop going. (Rev)

Ekaterinas POV

Im sorry, you said you needed help? (Ekaterina)

If this place is bought by someone who wants to do something different, not a glass workshop. The masters furnace will be destroyed. It wouldnt be right. Its worth so much. Its the only one in the world, and there are many beautiful things that only it can produce. That kind of value.

Rev Continues.

I know Im being absurd. But there arent many people who could afford this place. Surely, this is our only chance. Please, I beg you. Miss, please buy this Workshop. (Rev)
