☀️ Arselia and Akonia

Laikos looked around, searching for Kilika, but couldn't find her.
- And why isn't she with you right now?

His eyes gleamed.

- She has a busy schedule all day after the coronation, she's a very busy person, that's why.)

- I also started reading this series, but I only managed to get to the third chapter, - Anpan commented, - a patriotic library, what can I say.

- We're trying. Of course, this series won't leave anyone indifferent, I understand the interest.

- Maybe the men could do something else for now, and you could show us what you wanted to show? - Arivel suggested. - I heard that before taking on great tasks, you should first put your room in order, so I'm very curious about how things are with you in that regard.

"Ehhh, well, cleaning is just moving things around, what does it give, right? Only a fool needs order, a genius rules over chaos," the knight mumbled embarrassed in her thoughts.

- Arivel, you'll have that opportunity again, and more than once, let's do it another time.)

Leaving the room, inside which on the table in a large pile lay various metal blanks, molds, hastily made drawings, some poems, and gears, and something else lay in a heap under the bedspread, the knight led the guests further.

- Here, by the way, is the study, Klina, - she shows a strict room, to which no one could object.

- Here is mine, - she opens it, and there it turns out... Well, nothing turns out, Erefir doesn't work there at all, there is not a single piece of paper on the table. However, a strange caliper and one nut lay lonely and somewhat conspicuously on it: a small and subtle signal of a far more global phenomenon, their appearance on the desk raised as many questions as the weak inhomogeneity of the relic radiation raises for scientists.

- Now, please, to the courtyard.

Some time later.

- Here is a small training ground: mannequins, targets, but everything is standard.

- And this is my pride. You've probably been interested in this separate building with a chimney for a long time! This is my refuge of fire and metal, a place of noisy solitude in the name of creating something grand.

Erefir leads her friends into the forge, where, although not as detailed as the master did earlier, she explains what and how, with her usual love for iron, machines, and other things.

- One of the latest things I created, - she takes out a hammer from behind her back. - Its name is Rock, and it performed wonderfully in the battle with the dragon, it was created with that purpose in mind. However, it was only one of many stages of preparation, we tried to be careful.
