🍁Nine Ancient Obelisks

– Oh, Lady Kimchilla, how delightful to meet you here! – Kamistella greeted the beautiful, wealthy, and simply wonderful woman with joy. – Your radiance grows brighter with each passing day! I will have to put in a lot more effort to become even a little bit like you. I hope you have a special place reserved for you at the upcoming event? It's so stuffy and crowded here...

– The feeling is mutual, Lady Kamistella. – The charming smile on her companion's lips faded quickly. – Unfortunately, my visit today is the result of chance and a whim, and therefore the Guild is not aware of my arrival. And although I would love to agree with your compliments, I cannot do so on this dark day.

Ushumgall did not have a habit of eating too expensively, deliciously, or extravagantly, so he limited himself to a hyena's paw, a glass of water, and chilled black drake venom.

Gonor orders kebabs and secretions, Illiman orders a meat pie and water, Sheila orders cutlets, an assortment, and ice cream with wine, Sir Kir orders soup and sausages with water.

– Sir Kir, may I ask a question... Why did you decide to take on our training? Are you motivated by ideological considerations, or are you working for the Guild?

– I enjoy watching fledglings grow into birds of prey; helping to unlock the potential of the youth of my homeland is also a noble cause. – At this point, the instructor's sternness was a thing of the past, as if he were a completely different person during training. – But the root of my motivation is not so generous. I yearn to immortalize my name in the hearts of people. One day, when all of you become famous warriors in our country and beyond, I will be an important point in the history of your life paths. The Right Pillar of Margel is a good example: this incomparable warrior came to our world from afar, and with her, the history of Anuzish was enriched with the names of all those who helped forge her into who she is. If you have the time and desire, and your feet bring you to Sizki, you can read her diary.
