Tiaral

for the guard. well, it's like a line during a battle, so he understands what's going on if I die.

Let the guy surrender because his boss is being held hostage.

Well, actually, here every second alchemist can learn the recipe for a love potion. And it also changes the recipient's perception of reality. So, the probability of creating a similar drug in Tiaral seems quite possible.

I may not be an alchemist, but it's easier to create ecstasy than a drug that completely breaks the will, as I think. And there is also a possibility that this continent lacks the ingredients, or the creation process is secret and exclusive to... Belial, or something? Since a miserable, and even artifact-based, surrogate like bracelets or MENTALITY is used here.
