☀️ Arselia and Akonia

—Heh, well, I don't think it's just about speed. I can run very fast too. —The knight folded his arms and studied the commander with an attentive gaze. —I think it's a matter of high extroversion: while I manage to formulate one answer to someone's remark in my head, she has already spoken with ten people.

—Alright, alright, enough with the compliments, —Phyr waved her hand. —Rather, Klin, I'd like to hear your stories too. After all... —the girl thought about whether to tell the secretary that it would be good to restore the names on the monument in the center of Kridenaar, since it is unlikely that the Archive with the population census will ever be restored from the ashes. But in the end, the redhead decided too late to steer clear of the dangerous topic. —However, never mind, it would just be interesting.

—In that case, please accept my condolences. I won't ask where you learned about the arguments of this senator, but I hope that the situation in your world has improved in the end. Magic is a useful tool, but it still requires due wisdom and caution when used. I've read about something similar in the world of Baldur, actually. They say that a certain king-sorcerer from a distant land decided to perform a sinister ritual, as a result of which he himself died, a considerable part of his kingdom turned into a desolate wasteland, but in other parts of the world, the veil began to tear. Let's hope that nothing like that happens here.

—Was it really so difficult for the dragon to wait another three weeks while we finished reading these still relevant descriptions! It's incredibly interesting to look for parallels. As for your condolences, whoever they may be intended for, don't worry. Unfortunately, I was killed while performing heroic deeds... But I survived!

—However, this applies to far more than just me, so what can you do. I didn't have any particular attachment to that country before the cataclysm, being just a traveler there, although something did develop later. But I think that's a completely different story, and I think we need to gradually move to a less one-sided format. We don't need someone to give monologues from their backstories; let it be a dialogue, or even a poly-log, —the redhead looked around at those present, making sure that Astellia and Kilika were here, if so. —Is everyone ready?
