One day, suddenly feeling that he hadn't read enough during the week, Garret studies the next book from the imperial chronicles.

VI - Floris es Diesra Arual
-1 action point, -4 hours.
+5 to intelligence or +5 to spirit.

An island-state surrounded by the sea... It sounds like something from sailors' tales, something close and motivating for a man like King Floris, given his inclination – he invested a lot in the development of everything related to maritime activities. Strictly speaking, he did not conquer the original Mindjin; this happened as a result of a certain natural disaster, and nevertheless, his initiative to help refugees eventually led to the creation of a vassal state, which later became part of the empire. Perhaps the scope of Floris's deeds is not as wide as that of his predecessors, but his story and achievements are quite remarkable.

- What, didn't you have enough for the two remaining volumes? - Na asks, counting Garret's money. - Well, I'll give them to you for free. Remember my kindness, okay?

— Oh, seriously? That's a great deal, thank you! It's just not right to have an incomplete collection; I would, of course, buy them, but yes... Thank you again. Well, I'll go and please my fellow bookworms.
Surprised by the sudden generosity of the merchant, Garret takes the missing books from the collection to Carneol.
