☀️ Arselia and Akonia

-- Wow, I have a lot to learn. Oh, this Apostle... my further training will definitely be postponed for a long time. The Archive will take a long time to recover from such a blow, if it even had any copies.

— I promise to teach you personally when I finish studying what I've read. Assuming the Archive doesn't recover from this blow, and my knowledge turns out to be sufficient. I was thinking about it anyway, sometime in the distant future.

-- By the way, do you remember me telling you about Na? It turns out she's the one sitting at the Mindjin market. She has that historical collection for sale, the one I didn't manage to get my hands on... We should learn something before we go dragon hunting! We'll spend some of the funds on books and the library. I think that's right, because a warrior without education is just a barbarian. That's why we practice our minds in between physical exercises.

— It would be useful, I agree. I didn't even make it to Raidar before – I stopped at the biography of Delsahid, – the warrior nodded briefly, – however, it's hard to argue with your statement about education. Few things can compare to the destructiveness of a person endowed with power but lacking knowledge.

-- Thank you for the pleasant conversation, newfound sister. I hope they didn't eavesdrop on us, as they usually do. But they should understand that everything is private. I'm going for another walk.

— You too. I'd like to look for Sonata myself, but I'm not sure where to start. The Patriarch might know something, but he's probably swamped with work right now. And would he even share information with someone like me? Violate someone else's right to privacy? I wouldn't. And going to the villa for that purpose... I don't know, it would be strange. Although, maybe it makes sense to visit for another reason. I suspect that Despair's next target will be Margel's country estate. Of course, we don't intend to lose to him, and we won't give in to pessimistic moods, but there are no guarantees that his lair will be discovered before Monday. We should be prepared for anything, although Nadia probably already realizes all the risks.
