☀️ Arselia and Akonia

— I certainly hope that such lessons are learned quickly. As for the methods... ha-ha, thank you for that. Actually, I agree with you. Inaction often leads to disastrous consequences.
"We, of all people, should know that."

— It's good that representatives of our profession are prepared people, - the inquisitor smiled, - I might have shared something from my past adventures, but all I have left is a device to scare away monsters and wild animals. It certainly won't be useful for the performance.

— Hmm, - the girl strained her memory, - as far as I remember, I warned her. I even asked Erefir to make a shield specifically for this act.
"Original, to say the least. But I hope it's just a costume and a strange sense of humor. Of course, you can't rely on hope alone."

— She was warned, - she nods, - first me, then Beata. She didn't really respond to our warnings. But if she was smart enough to hide her appearance from the guards on the way here, she should be able to figure out how to protect herself during the performance. Maybe she'll choose a better costume.

— That's how it is, - she sighs, - yes, that's true. Especially in our field. And not everyone learns these life lessons. Or they learn them, but not right away, after suffering a lot. Although... sometimes it's very difficult to predict the twists and turns of fate, especially if what was lost before is perceived as everyday routine.
Alaria perfectly understood the young man's emotions. In her life, she had lost a lot, starting with friends and ending, if I may say so, with her native world. Even looking at the night sky, full of stars, she couldn't find a planet close to her heart. And even if it were so close, would the Tanarian be able to return there? Many dear people are long gone. Familiar streets have changed. She would be no less of a stranger there than here. But for someone like Klyn, it was probably even harder, because the mountains of Kridea were always nearby. Less than a week's journey. He could easily take a train and visit his family, but work-work-work. Maybe he was even afraid to visit them in his current form. And now all this is gone. Given her experience, it was hard not to be aware of the burden on his soul. And that's why Alaria understood the importance of future plans. Why Kridea should be restored. To help her friend get something that she herself will never be able to have. Because all she can do is accept this state of affairs. Accept them as they are. And find other people from her native world, because one of them, carrying the spirit of true Reima, was somewhere on the horizon. It remained only to guess what was bothering Gion, but if the Lunesian wasn't ready to share, it was his full right. Everyone has their own path to healing.
