🍁Nine Ancient Obelisks

- I have no idea what "you" you're talking about, or what else you might want to say to Ginza, - Genza demonstratively picked at his ear with his little finger and blew away the extracted debris. - But if we assume for a microsecond that some "you" exist, then I would probably say in this situation that I cannot predict how the situation will turn out for you, for me, or for anyone else, if it becomes more widely known, but it certainly won't be in a favorable way. Perhaps I would add that I am very sorry for everything that has happened, the feeling of guilt is eating me alive when I look at your faces, and I would most like you - and we - to succeed in our common cause and prove to the universe that we are capable of overcoming such difficulties. Maybe I would even want to have some epic death that would be the deciding factor in our cause. Although, of course, it would be better without it. I would definitely find a whole bunch of excuses, dilute the responsibility throughout the chain, bring in the inevitability of fate, and express my gratitude from the bottom of my heart, not only mine, but also collective, for the fact that Ginza didn't find out anything. But... since none of this exists and never has, we can safely remain at the same level, without fear of worsening our precarious situation.

Crossing his arms over his chest and gloomily surveying the room, he raises his voice (in a masterful way, so that only the party can hear, and not some random erudite passerby):
- There is another way in Calcite, if this option is still on the table, but it is also not easy. A week ago, I overheard a conversation between a couple of Dathian mercenaries in a bar, in elaborate officer uniforms. A tunnel has been dug under the northern wall, dating back to the old Calcite, from which it is a short journey to Shina through the sands, requiring equipment, but at least it should lead somewhere in its remote outskirts, and not to the square in the middle of a group of soldiers. Perhaps the enemy does not yet know about it, since they are attacking Sushka, although "some" of them certainly know. And it is unclear whether it has already been collapsed on our side. Either way, information is needed.

Will they distinguish me from Erika?
