☀️ Arselia and Akonia

—Well, don't be sad about it; there's a saying in Kriedaar: "A thought without effort is like a mountain without a peak." On the contrary, this also works. Instead of wallowing in your depressive thoughts, you bring a new life lesson to your fellow philosophers, always combining it with a useful activity in the fresh air. When your soul is tuned to harmony and unity with the world as the mother goddess intended, all other observations will seem, well, like fallen autumn leaves. —The Knight nodded towards the roadside. —They will pass you by as a colorful ornament, without causing any harm to your heart, but on the contrary, strengthening it with new life knowledge. And no great wisdom or a degree from a philosophy faculty is needed for this, no matter what they say in your empire. However, to be honest, after my "transformation," I often violated this approach myself...

—Yes, I guess I forgot about that. —The former servant agreed, looking around. —I don't see any informative posters. Outside the city? Hmm, maybe I'll ask about it on the way back to the SRI?

- Maybe he has something... Ugh. You become like those you associate with, - the priestess shakes her head disapprovingly at herself. - ...He's just a man, not someone involved in "dubious" enterprises. He'll get a nosebleed from your outfit, and what's going on inside will probably drive him crazy.

She sighed and rubbed her forehead.
- Please, tell me that I just don't fully understand you in this matter, otherwise I... no, it's okay. I haven't had breakfast yet.

- Damn it! - Aiyano stamped her foot in frustration. - Now I have to figure out who was there and who wasn't! And all because you were like potatoes to me. Well, maybe I saw one with white ears, but she wasn't swearing, so I felt a dissonance... But it's good that she wasn't, because the Kami-sama would have cursed her for it, and I would never have forgiven her. Eee... Well, that's the answer to the question. But... - she sighs. - The music didn't last long... I came here for what? I'm leaving tomorrow on business. Maybe for a week or two, I can't say for sure yet. But I'm telling you now so that it doesn't happen like last time...
