Raptilion Falosofichi 

- RAPTI, DINNER'S READY!
Once again, Raptilion Falosofichi hadn't noticed how time had flown by. He set aside the philosophical treatise of Chmukech of Aregon titled "Tengi mne platiti goiii!" and, descending from the attic to the first floor, headed to the kitchen.
- Here! This time I think it turned out right!
A young, moderately pretty red-haired woman of average height, dressed only in stockings, was strangely nervous for some reason. Raptilion sat down at the table and began eating cutlets with mashed potatoes.
- Well, is it tasty?
- Mm-hmm, - the man grunted phlegmatically.
- Hooray! I tried my best! - The woman watched Raptilion eat for a while, then spoke again. - Um, I don't want to bother you, b-but...ahem, our savings are almost gone...Maybe y-you could, l-like...well...as they say...ahem-ahem...find that th-th-thing where they sometimes pay money)))
- Oh, - Raptilion sighed heavily.
- I-I understand, I understand, it's not easy reading super-brainy books that only the very-very most super-brainy people can comprehend, you get so so tired, b-but...we need to e-eat...I want to eat, belly-dweller, you...And overall, we need various things too...
- Mm-hmm.
- S-so will you look for that thing t-tomorrow, y-yes?)
- Yeah.
- Great!
The woman hugged Falosofichi and kissed him on the cheek, which was stuffed with cutlets and mashed potatoes. He himself continued phlegmatically chewing his dinner.

Raptilion spent his entire conscious life among books. His father and mother worked in the Imperial Archive, so there was never any shortage of them. The surrounding reality interests Raptilion only as an object of philosophical analysis and evokes no particular emotions. That's why he goes outside only out of necessity, spending all his free time at home with philosophical books. He is well known in the philosophers' guild, though it's not like he's a frequent visitor there. Due to his slow mind, he takes too long to process things, so he doesn't really enjoy conversing with other philosophers. Raptilion does not consider himself a philosopher.

After his parents' death, he inherited a house in Margel. His mother had to be replaced by the neighbor's daughter named Christi Praved. Someone needed to take care of household chores. And doing it all himself or hiring expensive servants was something Raptilion had no intention of doing. Unfortunately, the man is forced to waste precious time on XXX. And now there'll also be a belly-dweller. "But what can you do? Such is life" — Raptilion reasons philosophically. To avoid going mad from excessive pondering about existence and to keep from offing himself, Falosofichi adopted Luensian ethics. He also converted Christi into it, so that she would love working and wouldn't whine too much.

The Armor of Harisen Linefront came to the Margelian from the Emperor himself. The man accidentally found a super-duper-mega rare book in the Imperial Archive that was considered long lost. For this, Falosofichi was honored with such a high reward. Raptilion is not a warrior, but he wears the armor because it gives lots of charisma he simply likes it.

Leaving the house in the morning, Raptilion found a letter in the mailbox. It turned out to be from Princess Naria herself. At first, the man thought it was some kind of joke, but then realized it wasn't. The imperial seal was genuine. "Hmm, what does she need me for? Arranging books in the palace in alphabetical order? No, someone must have confused me with somebody else. Fine, so be it, I'll go and inform them of their mistake" — the Margelian headed to the princess.
