Reimian Empire

Indeed, it seems they made a mistake with the address.

The peculiar drink turned out to be quite pleasant to the taste, compared to the swill he had tasted before. Seliad didn't immediately pay attention to the strange conversation nearby, although he usually wasn't too interested in such things.
-I sincerely apologize, gentlemen. -he approached the two patrons. -I happened to overhear the end of your conversation. So, if you're saying that children cry because of the suffering to come, does that mean the children of the rich don't cry at all? Or, for example, I remember once, my mother's sister had a baby, a very quiet one, who didn't cry at all. And he died that very night. How does that happen?

— Good day, sir! Please, have a seat. — The younger of the two men moved over and made room for Seliad. As the warrior noticed, he was drinking "Emperor," while his companion was drinking "Serpent's Bite."

- The world is a real piece of crap, yes. But a newborn cries because it's much more pleasant to be inside a woman than outside. It's like getting out of a warm bath and immediately running out into the street in winter. Not very pleasant. Everything else is just religious speculation.

— Oh, our company is getting bigger. — The speaker cheerfully greeted another stranger. — The children of peasants, the children of the rich, and even the children of great emperors, they are all the same in the face of harsh reality. A person's life is full of suffering, and there is no escaping it. Undoubtedly, a rich person lives better than a poor person, but even in his life there is suffering and fear. The fear of death, for example. Death cannot be experienced, it cannot be tasted, it is unknown to everyone — none of the people who have lived in this world have had such an experience. No one knows about death, but everyone is afraid of it. People either live in suffering or are afraid of this unknown phenomenon. Happy people are afraid of their own death or the death of their loved ones, but only those whose lives are filled with suffering — physical or emotional — are not afraid of it. Have you noticed this pattern, my friend? — The speaker's companion silently drank his fiery drink. Seliad could notice the abundance of scars on his face and arms and his muscular build. — It should be added that your example of the silent infant who died so early only confirms what I said. This newborn had not yet been given a worldview that contradicts the truth. In other words, this outcome was purely positive for him, which is why he did not cry.
