The business counterparty
Sempronio & Sons
Supplier, contractor, competitor or creditor: it depends on the week. A historic Roccamesta firm, three generations of Sempronios and an in-house legal department that forgives nothing. When Gaio signs something without reading it, their stamp is almost always at the bottom of the page. They are not villains: they are simply extremely punctual with formal notices.
