☀️ Arselia and Akonia

"From Carneol, I demand and expect little – only the efficient execution of tasks and the preservation of the dignity of the imperial house; everything else, I leave to your discretion, Erefir. However, it is important to remember that I will not allow the organization to be sold or placed under the leadership of another person, nor will I allow its name to be changed, as out of respect for its founder, I wish to preserve it." Naría shows Erefir an imperial document listing the knightly composition of Carneol, which currently contains only one name (Erefir Lin'el Darvening, the first knight of Carneol; Grand Master of Carneol; the right pillar of Margel). "I have no intention of burdening myself with the charter, the initiation process, and other minor details; therefore, you should take care of them. As for the fortress, let it not trouble your mind for now; its construction will take time, and your involvement is not necessary. We will decide on the budget and other resources as the need arises." The Empress cast a brief glance at Erefir's companion. "I find it commendable that you have found a worthy use for the person I sent into retirement, but tell me frankly, why do you bring up the list of gifts in this context?"
