☀️ Arselia and Akonia

- No, but during my last visit, there was a rather pleasant young man on duty, not this brute. However... - Regaining her composure, Trakia cast a new glance at the insolent guard. - Perhaps it was a fortunate encounter...

It would have been nice to encounter a pleasant young man on duty instead of Alamush. Especially since, outside the slave market, Alaria hadn't noticed anyone like that. Just men, hulks, and toads. And, of course, mad wizards. But then again, she didn't come here to admire the sights.
— Well, Lady Trakia, it is indeed important to be able to see the positive side of everything, — the change in the rich woman's mood amused the Tanarsian, but she hid it behind a polite smile, — and I can guess which "sides" you are referring to. I suppose such giants are rare in Calcite?
The swordswoman herself, however, did not share her employer's enthusiasm for the repulsive guard. Even apart from his utterly bad manners and habit of using his fists, the overdeveloped gorilla-like creatures were not to her taste. And this one had the full package – repulsive both inside and out.
