☀️ Arselia and Akonia

- That's right! - Merel replied and struck the merchant on the head with his sword.

- That's right, - the astrologer replied after returning the greeting. - Moreover, we and our companions were detained in connection with this case, suspected of previous murders or complicity, they didn't even explain it properly. And look how it all turned out, - Merel was indignant. - They detain everyone indiscriminately, but they can't even catch a lone psycho when he attacks them. Where have you seen that before? After this, the leadership of the guard and the police should definitely be replaced.

Well, or, let's say, not so intense, but rather that he was completely consumed by it, as if all the humanity in his soul had been displaced. In our world, this could be called possession by a "demon." There have been stories of such incorporeal entities overwhelming a weakly protected mind, and a comrade-in-arms from yesterday loses control, but gains many times in strength and aggressiveness, and begins to cut down his unsuspecting comrades, - Aiyano instinctively rubbed the scar under her kimono. - There are even legends about mighty and desperate heroes who voluntarily imprisoned a demon within themselves, hoping to restrain it with their willpower, but in the end, they lost the battle. In such cases, an exorcism ritual sometimes helps, but there are no guarantees. Most often, the only way out is the physical destruction of the one who has lost his mind.

- He-he, you're getting defensive) Tell me, will the assortment of your goods be updated soon? I would like a new hat.
