☀️ Arselia and Akonia

-- Oh, I see, you have a lot of experience? -- said the dwarf, introducing herself to the friendly employee. -- I will also take your advice into account, but you know, when the lives of other people depend on you, I simply cannot be reckless 😤. Of course, if it were just me, I would do the same, or I would run away if the enemy turned out to be too strong for me.

"That is, in the end, I would run away."

-- I want my comrades to trust me more than they trust themselves, and for this, I need to learn a lot.

It's obvious.
- I have a cool magic wand in my room, let's go, I'll show you!

- Heh. Well, you were lucky. I had to work as soon as I arrived. Although it wasn't that hard. By the way, my name is Raphael, what's yours?

— One in a thousand? — Garret was incredibly surprised, beginning to realize that this world might not be as similar to his own as he was told.
— Magic never seemed so rare to me... So, all this is only for a few chosen ones?

To be honest, this answer surprised Keliandra. This is a great artifact! With it, even the weakest mage can cast spells almost tirelessly, and the capital's wizards just refuse it? Well... It's better for her.

— Thank you! Thank you very much! But I came to the capital to study the art of magic. I think that with my small knowledge of magic and this staff, I can worthily serve our Empire. But how can I do this?
