Premium Asugukh Diary of Erika ("Blue"). Entry 2.


03.01.1001


Before the Royal Palace, I listened to a speech by the Tsar and Ikusa regarding the situation on the western border. In short, things are grim...
The Guild, represented by Archmage Misty Rosalein, assigned me to walk around the entire capital and check for magic presence...
At the square, it was announced that in some Citadel of Amusement, founded by Felicia Lungworth and located in the city of Shina in Calcita, a tournament would be held on January 12.
They also said that the Adventurer's Guild is organizing a raid on some "Thunderstorm", resembling the ship of Empress Naria.
They promised some concert by some Lunar Diva in the evening. Apparently, this refers to Kisa Sorae, whom I've read about in the newspapers. So here I stand waiting while filling out this diary...
Among those gathered, I spotted Sir Kir and his students. Paid my debt.
I headed to Muzzard, where I met my friend and "colleague" Camistella. I think Jack and Nebos will be glad to chat...
Camistella was giving some interview about some goddess Rinze, her lovers, and so on, so I had to wait who knows how long until they sold me two brand-new diaries, including this one...
But at least I got to read more details about the Citadel I heard about at the square. An interesting tournament... Maybe I'll even go...
When it finally came time to buy, I asked Cherry for a discount of 50 rems for the inconvenience caused. She didn't give it... Well, Anuzish is round...
After "all of that," Camistella and I went to the Lunarian Community. Those folks have cordoned themselves off from the outside world with a barrier for some reason... Though Camistella's presence helped us pass their "checkpoint" without hindrance. Before our eyes appeared Ginga's House, Enchanting, Halls of Nostalgia, Workshop, and some kind of Buyer.
Camistella decided to first enter Ginga's house. Ginga turned out to be the head of this very community. After a few minutes of conversation, she somehow threw us out of the community using some unknown spell. Sad times...
I begged a monocle off Camistella. A useful thing in... certain cases...
Then we went to some shop with the strange name "Three Questions"... The saleswoman turned out to be a woman from Karnia named Luka.
I bought a lamp there. It'll come in handy, I think... Turns out they give discounts for entries in a "special" little book. Though there weren't many entries in it. Actually just one: from some Genza. There was one — now there are three!
With the purchase, they gave me a free vial of "poison." That poison turned out not to be what I initially thought. Anyway, I traded it to Camistella for boots...
Leaving the shop, we ran into artist Faineant — an old acquaintance of Camistella's. Had to listen to chatter again. About scryms, Queen Lunomaria, "non-rising appendages," protrusions inserted into concavities, and so on, and so on, and so on... I understood nothing about scryms except that meeting them is dangerous for one's psyche...
Camistella left with Faineant to see her scryms, and I headed to Kuromod. But the owners, apparently, had taken off somewhere...
I didn't want to go to the temple of Nanaya, but work required it. Guild work, mind you — not the kind you, disrespectful reader who stole my diary and is reading this without permission, might have thought...
On the way, I ran into an "activist with a petition" named Gilion Presmeitin. Judging by the content of the petition, the fellow is clearly among the followers of Purian es Diesra Arual — the nineteenth monarch of Margel (if the newspapers are to be believed).
The petition is dubious, but I didn't reject it outright. I promised to think it over, and the activist gave me his home address so I could come if I decided to sign. Well, I'll think about it...
Finally reached the temple. Stood there and... left. Same with the temple of Nammu Ai. May glorious Zhusyiksidzire forgive me for visiting these places...
Went to the market hoping to find something from the mysterious star's assortment. Or at least something suitable for a respectable sorceress. Nothing there...
Visited Alastia's Studio. Alastia appears to be the name of the establishment's owner. Judging by her appearance, unlike anything I've ever seen, she's clearly an "incomer." Originally from Southern Zimivia, a member of the Crafters' Guild.
Bought a couple of figurines and went to the restaurant. Should have left Jack at home...
Attended the promised concert... The concert was good... Besides, it restores one's strength in some incomprehensible way...

After finishing writing, Erika felt her faith in Zhusyiksidzire growing stronger. + 1 to faith
