Dreams.

From the way she laughed afterward, I realized that, from the Empress's point of view, the incident with my neighbor was resolved, and he was forgiven.

Revan was right; Rynze is a kind and merciful Empress...

By the way, I had a dream tonight that Revan opened an expedition. Instead of maps, he decided to simply offer a choice of similar bonuses at the start, although I don't remember all of them now. One was definitely a katana, slightly below the top tier (by which I mean legendary artifacts), made from the rarest material. Another was a legendary artifact for Berserkers (requiring 100 Strength and 20 of something else), which gave them huge stat bonuses but aged the character by 50 years as a price.
In addition, Revan also spontaneously decided to add a lot of content when he was almost finished with the set, but the content turned out to be a bit strange. For example, in the original concept, there was simply a typical empire, with a picture of a couple of humans and an elf. After adding the content, anthropomorphic pandas appeared in the setting, and the picture of the empire, in addition to the already described trio, included four representatives of the new race.
