The tournament was postponed until enough participants were gathered, so Halmeldir decided to use the free time to earn some money, especially since his savings were running out and he would soon have no money even for food. He couldn't find any ordinary part-time work in the city, so he decided to go to the Morpheus organization. There, the elf was offered four tasks. The first seemed too troublesome to him, besides, tracking people was not the forte of the former officer, and negotiations were not really his thing, especially in such a matter. Halmeldir also immediately dismissed the hunting option, as it most likely involved having firearms and the ability to handle them skillfully. Magical experiments were automatically ruled out. Given the elf's nature, this task could simply fail, not to mention the elf's ambiguous attitude towards magic and almost everything related to it. So, in the end, only the fourth option remained, which initially seemed unworthy for an imperial officer, even a former one. But considering his situation and the lack of other options, he had to agree. After all, this was also a kind of service to his country, just not in the usual place, if you consider him a military man. But the task itself was quite clear - to eliminate creatures that threaten the safety of the city and its inhabitants. As it turned out later, he would have to work with female representatives, some of whom he knew to some extent.
