☀️ Arselia and Akonia

She headed back towards the Carneol headquarters.

"Really? Judging by the noise, I thought they just dried out. Sweets can last a long time. Okay, we'll sort it out later."
- We've coordinated with the administration to put on a small circus performance here in the port, near the Carneol headquarters, to somehow cheer people up and boost their morale. We're preparing for it now, there will be a rehearsal in the evening, and the performance itself will be tomorrow. I'm telling you this, first, so you know what's going on and who all these people are, just in case, " he smiled at his wording. - And secondly, there will probably be quite a few people at the performance, and of all kinds. We have a few strong guys, but half of them will be on stage, and in general, we are mercenaries, not representatives of the official authorities, so if something goes wrong, they might not understand us. And it would be great if we could be allocated a few guards or increase patrols in this area. Of course, this is just my suggestion, you know best how to proceed, but I think it's important to let you know.

- Well done! " she showed two thumbs up. - Now, I'll wash my hands and have a snack, I've been running around the city all morning, I'm as hungry as a harpy!

- I hope you didn't wait too long for me while I was running around.

- Perhaps. However, the aging scenario sounds a bit fantastic to me at the moment, because I didn't become a warrior in order to live a long life, and therefore I secretly hope for a spectacular heroic death sometime long before this issue arises ) - Erephir joked. - But in general, you are right in one way or another... Whether it's time, enemies, or even the thermal death of the Universe, nothing existing will be spared from them, even the most majestic sun-drenched mountains, even the most exquisite blades and armor forged from meteorite steel, and all works of art, and all decorations, will still fall and turn into something else. This dynamic, which is accessible to our senses, makes our life truly magical, we are not just looking at a static photograph, no, we are reading a book, an entire album passes before curious human eyes, and each page brings something new to us.

- Those who seek will find, there is a whole host of professions where your way of thinking is critically necessary and therefore common. A cook is one of them, yes... Another is a doctor. So there is still a lot ahead )
