Reimian Empire

- Heh, what a pleasant surprise. Right here. Let me introduce you to Jerl, my former subordinate. We once yearned to defend the empire! Now we're mercenaries here. By the way, I never did learn your name.

— Eleos, — the young man briefly introduced himself and extended his hand first to Kurat, and then to his companion, — pleased to meet you, Jerl.
— Likewise, I presume.
— By the way, Kurat, I enjoyed the book you lent me during our first meeting.
