— She’s coming, — Maylin agreed. — Let’s make a deal: neither of us will use magic, and we’ll have a peaceful conversation without harming each other. You explain to me how you sensed my observation, and I’ll explain to you why I did it.
Fearing that her physical form might damage her clothes, Maylin remained in her “spectral” form.
— But let’s start with the simplest thing, — she added in a calm tone. — I apologize for intruding into your mind and, apparently, causing you pain. Usually, mind reading is imperceptible and harmless to the target; otherwise, despite my distrust of those around me, I would avoid using this ability. I really didn’t want to hurt or offend you...
The sorceress stops Maylin’s bleeding; thanks to her incorporeality, her underwear remains dry :(
- I felt it when blood suddenly started flowing from you. Or rather, I saw it. Few can sense your necromantic tricks. Or whatever you are... a Structuralist? Ha-ha! - Izemberta said with obvious irony. - Apology accepted. And it’s clear without mind reading that Brasahog shouldn’t be trusted. Okay, let’s move on. Let’s pretend nothing happened.

Arandor didn’t argue about two hundred axots, so he agreed to 1800.
- And what will you do with him? Will you resurrect him or extract his skeleton? - Tarleon asked.
- Perhaps I can preserve his flesh in such a way that it doesn’t smell. But usually, we don’t do that. Two skeletons are better than one zombie. Besides, we have enough material now. Ha-ha!
