☀️ Arselia and Akonia

-- Guys, have you understood? We are hunting a dragon, and not just any dragon, but also an apostle.

"Funny," Alaria thought, "it's as if I'm new, and Erephir doesn't know that I've already hunted apostles. And she talks about them as if they are something well-known."

-- The information is as follows: this is our trump card, and this is how we get it. As soon as we are ready, we will go to different regions; the specific distribution will be later, when we hire new people into the squad... Candidates will be here in a minute. For now, you need to decide what kind of immunity you would like for yourself. Although, I would definitely like to see Kilik in Heles as a local guide, if you don't mind, court mage. And I need to go to Kumari, not even for the sake of the holy Ruby, with whom everything is complicated, but because I participate in Tournaments.

"It's ironic that of all four options, the blessing of fire seems to be something that, using the mentioned method, will most likely be granted to only one person. And here we need to face the truth – Erephir, as a Tournament representative, looks like a much better candidate than me. So it's hard to argue with the fairness of her decision. Besides, no one said that everything is limited to only the four described methods. Especially in the context of Laplace, whose traditions have always aroused a certain interest in me. But this is all assuming, of course, that I will not be punished for "staying in Margel and memorizing the contents of the archive"."
