Camistella processed the information she had received for a while.
“The Black Knight… he is undead, his eyes are red… and it was about a year ago that we began to realize the threat of an invasion from the west. I fear that all of this is nothing more than a cunning plan by the Haranian Empire. He cannot be alone. The Black Knight must have hundreds, even thousands, of sorcerers behind him, not to mention the risen dead. And he himself is stronger than anyone in Asuguh. This is war. I fear that we have only two paths, and a solo victory over the Black Knight is not one of them. We can only be helped by the power of gods like Akonia or Arselia, or… by the Necromancers of the Haranian Empire, who are probably behind all of this. Both paths are questionable. The Necromancers cannot be trusted, and purification with divine help could kill us, given the nature of our curse. After your encounter with the Black Knight, you also developed dark powers, didn't you?
The Lunarian fell silent and suddenly suggested something unexpected.
“Maybe there is something important in your letter? You never know.
Hope dies last.”
“And the letter?… I think it’s an advertisement for a parking space, but if you think so…”—He unfolds the envelope and glances at the contents.
