While everyone is still awake, Kenshiro discusses unforeseen difficulties with his companions.
— It seems we may have gotten a little carried away with our equipment expenses. If His Majesty doesn't help us, we'll have to seriously cut back, but even that might not be enough, and we'll have to contact the guild. Or the arena. Even if we all live in one room, we still have expenses for a guide and logistics. Oh well. The details will be decided after talking to the king. In the meantime, I think it would be a good idea to present him with the Sartek Axe as a gift. It's not very practical, but it's presentable and has a history, and it would be awkward to come to an important person without a gift. I should check with Karim, but I think such elements of etiquette are universal.
— We really got carried away, — Alaria agreed unhappily, mistakenly considering the money given to them as "preparatory" funds. — I think we really will have to take on some local work and hope that it pays well. But even if we weren't so constrained by our, uh, financial circumstances, it would still make sense to go there. To the arena, too. If an abomination turns out to be its main "attraction." As for the axe, the idea of a gift is good — it will help us make the right impression on His Majesty.
The Tanarsian didn't say this out loud, but the idea of giving the king something that "isn't very useful" seemed very amusing to her, even though Kenshiro had said this phrase only in their small circle.
